Current projects:
-Lined jacket for PCPA Theaterfest's production of "The Music Man". I hope to construct a corset too.
-Paneled skirt
-The traveler's coat is in use now, though I would like to eventually make some alterations to it... inserting a lining and adding more structure to the collar.
I hope you like my artwork and I would appreciate any comments (feedback/critiques/compliments) you can make. DO NOT HESITATE TO CRITIQUE MY DRAWINGS!! But, please do NOT post a comment simply to tell me that a piece is complete crap (of course, I trust most of you will not do this, but there are, indeed, some of those people out there). Please provide CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. If you believe there is something I need to improve on, tell me. I have drawn for as long as I can remember, though I still feel the need to develop my technique.
Once I get more stuff scanned...absolutely need photoshop... I plan on doing some major edits to my gallery: transferring several drawings into scraps, perhaps (some of them are horrible, I must admit)... and redrawing a few of them.
3445 pageviews and counting!!
Thank you
-Please take a look at the scraps

I hope to learn how to make corsets... I hear there's an amazing corsetry place in Santa Monica.
Corsets and Crinolines by Norah Waugh, and
Corsets: Historical Patterns & Techniques by Jill Salen. Both have been an invaluable source of info

I think I might start out with an 18th century corset... not sure if I should buy casing or simply insert the boning in between two layers of fabric (coutil/fashion fabric, etc)... I will definitely construct a mock-up (I could use casing for this)... but maybe casing might add too much bulk to the final corset. What are your suggestions?
Good luck, can't wait to see what you come up with!
