Fashion Illustration Workshop

Join clothes designer and fashion illustrator Nicola Sutcliffe for a two-hour fashion illustration workshop and Pop-up Shop!

VARIOUS SUNDAYS 11AM – 3PM

Escape into the world of fashion illustration with Nicola Sutcliffe. These hands-on workshops are the perfect place to develop your drawing skills, explore new techniques, and bring garments to life on the page.

Loosen Up & Sketch Freely
The workshops will start with quick-fire sketching exercises using a variety of media, in order to loosen up your style.

Master the Basics of Proportion
You will then concentrate on the basic proportion of the body and will be shown several exercises to help build your confidence and how to add movement when drawing people.

Ink, Brush and Watercolour
Once this is mastered you will be shown a variety of techniques with ink, brush and watercolour focusing on gesture drawing in order to bring the illustrations of garments to life.

Create Your Final Fashion Illustration
By the end of each session, you’ll complete your final fashion illustration, using all your newly acquired skills.

Classes are small, with no more than 4 attendees, which means I get to work 1 to 1 with you.
All materials are provided along with a complimentary glass of prosecco or soft drink.
The class is 4 hours with a 40 minute lunch break between 12:50 – 1:30pm.
