Developing The Right Practice Mindset For Fashion Style Drawing

By Tammie Caldwell


Doing what we love is one of the best ways to foster a feeling of fulfillment. This is exactly why career experts would suggest students to develop skills that are directly related to what they love best. When they do, the effort and time they spend for studying will feel more like a challenge than a required course needed in order to pass a subject.

This does not mean though that everything will come in easier the moment you set your heart on something. It takes time and effort to be good at anything, and no matter how you visualize, if you do not do the work, you will not get anywhere. Same goes for those who are looking at opportunities to excel in the fashion industry. Fashion style drawing is one of those basic activities to develop your skills in creating unique designs.

As long as you have decided on making the first step to improving your skills, you can then find time to do something about it. Mind you, the road is not easy. But doing something is better than continually wondering what it would feel like to this and that. Here are some tips that you can use when practicing the craft on paper.

Selection of drawing tools. You can draw in any piece of paper you want. You can also use pen, pencil or any writing tool that you feel like working on. But to keep track of the progress that you are making, it will be more practical if you create a sort of binder or sketchpad containing your art works.

Think of the concept. Sometimes, you do not have to do the actual drawing to get some things done. The act of thinking about design concepts alone is already something, and you need this as a form of mental exercise. Best thing is, you do not have to be anywhere special in order to do this. After all, ideas can come any time.

Time and place. There are different types of artists. There are some who can just do fine even in a noisy environment as long as they can see beautiful view outside. Others would prefer practicing on a silent place and at a specific time. If you are one of those who needs conditioning, then finding a good place where you can work on your craft is most appropriate.

Practice discipline. There are times when we feel discouraged about something that we do especially when we are not seeing some immediate rewards of whatever we are doing. It is only discipline that keeps us from doing it even if we dont feel like drawing something.

Get someone who can offer you comments. Sometimes, you will need the inputs of other people about the works that you have. If the feedback come from an expert, then the bigger the chance for you to improve your work based on what they suggest. Of course, at the end of the day, you will still be the judge if you want to pursue whatever you are working. But it does not hurt to hear what other people have to say as well.

There is no shortcut to learning a skill. Even those who are naturally gifted on the craft will need regular practice to be better at what they do. Make up your mind on what you want to pursue, and do something to nurture it now.
