HOW I DREW FABRIZIA of "COSA MI METTO???"

             

THIS IS MISS FABRIZIA.

She gave me the permission to illustrate her. :)

Don't believe me? Click HERE and see the comments! :) hehehe

OK.. so I have received a few emails asking me how I drew my illustrations. Here in this post I WOULD LIKE TO SHOW YOU STEP BY STEP how I draw. 

And in no way am I claiming I'M GOOD AT MY ILLUSTRATIONS. I honestly believe I AM NOT AN EXPERT AT THIS AND I HAVE SO MUCH TO LEARN MYSELF. I am a PAINTER and that's what I do professionally. But I don't know why, whenever I pick up a pencil, I end up drawing fashion! 

So here I want to make clear I am showing you how I draw, AND THAT IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM SHOWING YOU HOW TO DRAW! :) 

Compassion Fashion Project and Kiss My Couture Fashion

 This one is MY COUTURE! I think it is the first time I drew couture. Idea given to me by kiss my couture fashion! I hope it's ok...

And this full of attitude is for compassion fashion project. Hopefully it will be on a black tank top soon enough!

Hot off the sketch pad! As you can see there are still some eraser dust on it! :) hehhehehe

Nikki and Heleny

 This is HELENY. This is how I see her and her poses. It is stunning and deeply natural. So I drew her! :)

This is NIKKI. This picture is from her header. She is absolutely beautiful. I don't think this drawing looks anything like her but when I draw someone, I don't draw it to copy their face, I don't draw it to look like them, I don't draw portraits.. I DRAW WHAT I FEEL! And this is how I see Nikki. Sometimes it resembles, sometimes it doesn't.. :)

kisses to all

STRIPES by design!

 This one above is just another quick QUICK doodle.. I have always loved chiffon scarves used as belts with really old and ragged jeans. Combining romance and elegance with something so casual have always been stunning. So why not? SORRY FOR THE BAD PIC! I promise to work on that.

"FREE HAND"

Just random doodling!!! :) 

HEADER No.1

This was suppose to be my header... but it didn't work out because it is quite long.. But recently I drew this on a black bag and it turned out great!!! I am still experimenting with what ink is best for leather..

I haven't been a huge fan of copyrighting.. I believe in sharing. So yes, you can copy and redraw it even, IF you want.. but the only thing I ask is link it back to my blog.. AND YOU CLAIM IT AS YOURS.. well.. it's your dignity down  the drain.. not mine! :) hihihi

So here is my final header.. I THINK.. it is quite blurry so maybe I'll re-do it.. But I think it is nice.. A LITTLE RUSTIC never hurt anyone.. and plus.. RUSTIC.. IS.. HOME!!!! 

THIS LADY BEHAVES' HEADER

I have decided to make this blog EXCLUSIVELY for FASHION ILLUSTRATIONS, not only mine but others too. MOSTLY MINE THOUGH..   :)
From http://tlbvintagelook.blogspot.com/ I got an email today from a famous blog, can't mention yet who it is, but wants to feature my illustrations :) then i got another email about why in the world don't I just make a blog about and ONLY ABOUT MY DRAWINGS.
I have a blog for MY PAINTINGS  but I never knew so much more were interested in fashion illustrations.. well... anyway, here it is.. and i'm naming it KNICKERLESS DOODLES BECAUSE FASHION ILLUSTRATIONS ARE ALL OBVIOUSLY KNICKER-LESS!!! :) I have had a bunch of questions asking me  "WHERE DID YOU GET THAT HEADER??"

RIGHT HERE LADIES....well and some gentlemen.. I DREW IT! :)
