Publisher's Synopsis
This book is a practical manual intended specifically for anyone in- terested in delving into the technique of applying colour to fashion figure illustrations to give them more life and expressiveness. In a clear and educa- tional way, Tiziana Paci, co-author of the highly successful and reference book Figure Drawing for Fashion Design, explains in detail the different topics examined through images and examples, along with concise and to- the-point texts ideal for novices as well as people who have been working in this field for years. The book is divided into the following chapters: poses, colour and colour combinations, watercolour technique, tools such as professional markers, coloured pencil and water-soluble graphite, digital techniques and mixed techniques. Together, these suggestions allow both beginners and professional illustrators to depict figures in vivid poses with incredible effects including the imitation of any type of material: leather, jewellery, bright fabrics and transpar- encies, and many more, following very different styles.
