NICK COMAN
– ART TO WEAR FROM THE BOTTOM UP
How many of us make amazing
tops, vests, tunics, jackets and just to slap on a pair of jeans or black pants because that's all we have? Wouldn't
it be nice to actually have an entire outfit, something that looks and feels cohesive? In this two-day workshop, you will
have the opportunity to produce a custom pattern for a pair of pants that fit. Then we will take that pattern and alter it
into a number of different styles, with details that will reflect back on you as an artist. We will talk about and actually
create patterns for "Bifurcated Garments" that take your unique sense of style from your head all the way to your
ankles (shoes are not included but they will be discussed!)
