A great costume starts with a sketch
Come see this fascinating exhibit of "Costume Concept-Drawings"
Jeanine Taylor Folk Art Gallery
for Art is a Drag
April 15, 6-9pm
Costume designers view character-development as a personality made manifest through clothing, make-up, hair and accessories.
The job begins with research and it often includes collaboration with a director, actor or model. Preliminary sketches lead to final designs which are done in full color. They show the style, silhouette, textures, accessories and unique features of each costume.
Darin Cooper is an artist who has done costume renderings for various designers and production companies.
Cooper's exhibit at JTFA are renderings for costumes made specifically for Hardrive Productions, Inc. under the direction of Greg Brown and for Todrick Hall's new show "Straight Outta Oz"
