The legendary Mr. David Downton came to LCF to give us a talk plus promoting his new book 'Masters of Fashion Illustration'. Within an hour, he shared his experience and how he got to this stage. He's surprisingly funny and he surely is one great talent within the fashion industry.
1) He told us that he never use rubber, just layering with light-box; positioning image until he's happy with it.
2) Likeness is not his concern, he cares about positioning instead.
3) He said he is a lazy workaholic, I bet he work 200% power on when he's focus. LOL
4) If he can be drawn by any illustrator, he wants René Gruau to draw him.
5) He made decision about 10 years ago that he will not work with computer, he revealed he doesn't like the idea of working with a box, he thinks everyone can do digital arts, it's problem about tool, but drawing is simply about the skills and he like to make sure people know that. LOL
I'm thrilled to get he sign his new book. This is one exciting moment!
