“...a hugely successful day for students, who thoroughly engaged with the workshop, immersing themselves in it completely.

 

They built on their drawing and observation skills as well as 3-D textural awareness. Feedback from all of them was overwhelmingly positive, and they were totally inspired by it.

 

A huge thank you to Elyse for an absolutely sensational day.”

“We need to challenge the stereotypical aesthetics of Fashion Illustration, and reflect on the importance of sustainability in the fashion industry. That was the thinking behind the latest Fashion workshop with special guest Elyse Blackshaw.

Elyse’s workshop gave students the opportunity to take their work off the page, and express themselves on the walls"
