Caribbean Fashion Sketches

Posted May 2023

I have 2 gigs tomorrow. The first one is for CARICATURES. My Client said it's a Communion/Baptism and Double Birthday for his Mother and his Mother-in-Law. Just yesterday, I drew Caricatures at a Wedding, so I feel warmed up for the first Event.

But the 2nd one is for FASHION SKETCHES. Quick presto-changeo. Engagement Party. My Client said it's Harlem Rennaisance Theme, and she hopes people will dress the theme (like I will ~ I already have my clothes together. Fun.). But client said she's expecting that most people will be wearing Bright Colorful Dresses, because they are Caribbean. She said that's what they always wear to the Parties.

I figured I should warm up for that. So I drew a few practice Fashion Sketches here tonight. Focusing on Caribbean Fashion. And I did coach myself to remember a few thangs at the party.

The first picture I drew ~ the one with the colorful jumpsuit/cape.... Took too long to draw/color. Not sure yet how I would handle such a pattern at the event, but it usually comes to me when I wake up in the morning. After going to sleep with the question on my mind. For meanwhile, I was much faster with the subsequent pictures that I drew here tonight.

And I decided that I hate drawing on the Shiny Silver Paper. It was slick, and it felt hard to get the Colors to cooperate. I only had 2 sheets of the shiny silver paper, and it's good that I 'wasted' one sheet by practicing on it. So I won't be dragged down by it during the event.

I can do this in my sleep

Posted Nov 2021

I had been developing a new Party Style for my Caricatures. Over-the-top Fun Cartoony. Cartoony ~ Is that the word? What I mean by it is clean shapes and unexpected representations. Barely got a handle on it, when I went out to this job.

Egads ~ Last-minute booking, long drive, and show up at 6am to set up and deal with all sorts of red tape to get in to the Event. That meant I was working on only two-and-a-half hours sleep. I don't think people understand what's involved when they send me the information at the last minute. I have a lot to prepare.

It felt like I was in a dream of some sort. And I was working along-side another Artist who had handled this Event for several years already. He had a very basic, but lovely, drawing style. Not very exaggerated at all. So I felt confused about how to draw. Stick to my own path? Or draw in my own style but more basic, like the other Artist?

On shaky ground, I didn't quite make a decision. And I couldn't do my new Party Style anyway, because I didn't have enough sleep.

The art is in the moment. I just drew. I did whatever I did. And they came out great!
