I've been writing a new assignment for my school learners, and this coming academic year I quite fancied doing a project on fashion illustration. Sssooooo, I've been having a little doodle myself in order to come up with some interesting tasks to set the learners, and I've come up with these! I saw a window display in a high street fashion store, I can't quite remember which one it was, but the mannequins had pictures of deer heads stuck on top of them and I thought it looked crazily kinda cool. So this (top left) is my take on that shop window in the form of a fashion illustration. I actually really like the use of the oversized animal heads, it makes the illustration really quirky and captures the attention.
I also tried the same technique using large doll heads instead of animals (below left). I love this too, and even though it's probab;y slightly less strange than the animal heads, I still think its really quirky.
These are actually really easy to do, and I've begun to draw up templates for my school learners to use, and I'll be piloting this task in September.
