The Essentials
of Clothing Sketching
  • The way I draw clothing is one of the key things that defines my style

    It’s exactly what makes people stop and look

    "Your clothes look stronger and simpler than other artists’ work. What’s your secret?"
    This 👆 is the question I’ve been asked most often — even by professional illustrators

    And here’s the truth:
    I don’t copy clothing from references the way most illustrators do.

    I have a background in fashion design.
    So I create clothing — I don’t replicate it.
    I draw it from my head.

    But there was no “reference” inside my head to copy from.

    So I had to figure things out differently:
    ✦ how and where folds actually form
    ✦ how light and shadow behave on fabric
    ✦ what silhouettes clothing is built from

    In a way, I don’t just draw clothes —
    I construct them, like a designer, using a clear set of principles.

    Now, even when I use a reference, I only look at the design
    and then I dress the model myself.

    ✦ That’s why my work feels different
    ✦ That’s why you can sense the understanding behind it
    ✦ And that’s exactly what sets my illustrations apart

    And these are the exact principles of “constructing clothing”
    that I’ll teach you inside this course
A pinch of inspiration
Here’s 👇 part of what we’ll be drawing together in this course, step by step 😍
You don't need talent to draw Fashion
  • When I first started drawing fashion, I had no idea how to draw clothing
    It felt complicated… even intimidating

    Now I see it very differently:
    Drawing clothing is actually the easiest part of fashion sketching.

    It all comes down to understanding the rules. And the best part?
    These rules are simple enough that anyone can learn them.

    It's the same principle as McDonalds. You don't need to be a super-cool chef to make a delicious burger. All you need to do is follow the clear instruction on how to make a burger

Why it doesn't matter
how you draw now

Now the course is broken down into elementary mini steps that you will definitely be able to follow
Here's what students are saying about learning with me 👇
Btw, the most diligent students will get my tuition for free
  • I’ll be hosting several student contests. Winners will get a 100% refund of their tuition.
Training format
  • I'm doing the lessons I'd like to learn myself
  • So congratulations! You don't have to watch 2 hour videos to find a 15 second fragment on how to properly mix paint!

    If you knew how much I was so sick of it when I was learning to draw🤬
  • All lessons are concentrated tutorials, no common or trivial information from open sources. I explain the key principles of drawing in short videos. Like this 👇
  • You can forget about "ooops, I didnt have enough time and energy to complete the course"

    In this format, the entire theory of the course can be covered and understood in 1-2 hours, and the released time can be devoted to practice
  • This format also makes it convenient to go back and review the theory. Because you can find the necessary fragment in 5 minutes, not having to watch 20 hours of video
  • In total you will find

    • more than 100 training mini videos
    • more than 100 training pictures (algorithms, schemes, examples)
    • more than 200 of my comments with explanations and nuances.

    And of course! My personal reviews of your works
Nice bonus
  • My student @lenartti.illustrations started creating step-by-step tutorials like these on her Patreon after completing the course.

    We’ve arranged for you to get access to them.

    It’s a great way to train your hand before the course (if you’re a complete beginner),

    And a perfect way to reinforce your skills and build confidence after the course ❤️
Why this course won't work for you
  • Let's be honest. There is simply no such thing as a perfect course for everybody

    And this course is no exception

    If you want to have fun and just draw 1-2 pictures... You'd better find some work shops.....

    This course is for future professionals!

    This course is for you if:
    • you want to become a professional
    • you’re willing to do the exercises
    • you want to understand the logic of drawing and work through the detaill

    For housewives without ambition looking for weekend's entertainment this course will seem overloaded with nuances, exercises and professional tricks
