my friend 'Shua and i are discussing a blog collaboration where the focus Really Is fashion illustration,. i'll be the model and stylist and he will draw me.
i know it sounds really vain, but it was his idea, because he wants to practice drawing more from a live figure and he likes how i dress, and my enthusiasm is in the right place.
here are two preliminary sketches, ones that you might recognize from two of last year's entries:
i think there will definitely be some challenges to this project -- for example, coming up with a name for our joint blog -- and i also want to contribute drawings. time itself might be the hardest thing to come by, since we live far apart from each other and work conflicting schedules and there's so much to get distracted by in chicago. however, it's a really appealing idea. my vanity is way into it. it's also great to talk about illustration and fashion with somebody who geeks over it like i do.
'Shua, of course, has his own website already, which is worth checking out: joshcrow
I'm glad you've found a worthy collaborator, time well spent is sure to follow.
