Illustration Homework


My first Illustration class is one of the hardest classes I've ever taken. My advisor told me this teacher is really tough. This homework is my fourth re-do.

Antonio Lopez




I remember seeing Antonio's work in the early 80's. I can see why is work was popular with the bold colours and graphic concept.

David Downton




When I first saw David's work, I instantly thought of glam in a big way. His sense of proportions, color, lines, values all work well. There's an organic sensibility that I do like about his work. Apparently David was in person at the Academy of Art last semester but I missed it. :(

George Stavrinos



This is the first day of my fashion illustration blog, I feel like I want to dedicate this to George Stavrinos who inspired me to draw so passionatly.

Here's how I found out about his work....

I was in high school, I was in the library looking through all the fashion magazines. I picked up the latest Vogue magazine, as I turned the cover, the first page was a Bergdorf Goodman ad with George's work...my mouth dropped to the floor. I was in awe, wondering how did he do it in pencil? Trying to remember the image, I think it was a woman crumbling up a letter in a crepe de Chine dress.
