Fashion illustrations of the day (red lip) / Modne ilustracije dana (crvene usne)

January 30, 2017

One evening, two fashion illustrations. I didn't use any reference. It was just me and my imagination. You know, I'm not even sure if it is one girl or two of them. It was only after I had painted them, that I noticed that these two faces are quite similar. Perhaps it is the same girl? These two illustrations have another thing in common. Both of these girls are wearing a red lipstick- or is it one girl wearing a red lipstick with two different outfits? Either way, it is all about the red lip. Never underestimate the power of a red lipstick.

The first outfit is a combination of a purple sheer blouse with flare sleeves and blue jeans. The bag she is wearing is a clutch. A cute outfit, perhaps not suitable for this kind of weather but with a very warm coat and an additional layer of clothing it could work just fine. Layering, layering, layering- it is still all about layering. The second outfit is a similar combination, just the top is red in this case. Alright, you can't actually see the jeans on the second painting, but you can take my world for it. What can I say? Right now it is all about jeans and adorable tops in this head of mine.

For those of you that are day dreaming of Spring and Summer, these two fashion illustrations can serve as an inspiration for the warmer months. Surprisingly, I'm fine with Winter- for now. Anyway, the medium of both of these is watercolour on paper. I honestly love these two turned out. That thin brush I bought is making my life so easier...and the shop assistant told me it can't be used for watercolour. Well, I guess she was wrong because it works like a charm. Have a great week everyone!

Jedna večer, dvije modne ilustracije. Nisam radila prema nikakvoj slici ili predlošku. Samo ja i moja mašta. Nisam čak ni sigurna je li u pitanju ista djevojka ili dvije različite. Tek kada sam ih naslikala, primijetila sam da su ova dva lica jako slična. Možda je to ista djevojka? Ove dvije ilustracije imaju još nešto zajedničko. Obje djevojke nose crveni ruž...ili to ili ista djevojka nosi crveni ruž sa dvije različite kombinacije? U svakom slučaju, naglasak je na crvenom ružu. Nikad nemojte podcijeniti moć crvenoga ruža za usne.

Prva odjevna kombinacija se sastoji od prozirne ljubičaste bluze sa širokim rukavima i plavih traperica. Nosi i malu torbicu bez naramenica. Slatka kombinacija, ne baš prigodna za ovo vrijeme, ali možda ispod jako toploga kaputa i još ponekog sloja odjeće? Slojevito odijevanje je još uvijek glavna stvar. Druga kombinacija je slična, samo je majica u ovom slučaju crvene boje. Dobro, ne možete baš vidjeti traperice na drugoj slici, ali mi možete vjerovati na riječ. Što reći? Trenutno mi se u glavi sve vrti oko traperice i slatkih topova.

Za one od vas koji sanjaju proljeće i ljeto, ove dvije modne ilustracije mogu poslužiti kao nadahnuće za toplije mjesece. Iznenađujuće, meni zima zasada ne smeta. Uglavnom, medij za obje ilustracije su vodene na papiru. Onaj tanki kist koji sam kupila mi je olakšao život....a prodavačica mi je rekla da se ne može koristiti za vodene boje. Izgleda da je bila u krivu jer meni je odličan. Želim svima divan tjedan!
