First-hand experience and passion for fashion illustration were the driving forces behind the creation of Essential Fashion Illustration: Men. The first half of the book focuses on technical drawings of the human body. The second half then branches out to fashion illustration using media such as watercolor, pastels, acrylics, and pencils. Essential Fashion Illustration: Men is both a didactic tool and a base from which fashion illustrators can build their own unique styles.

Award-winning fashion illustrator and designer Chidy Wayne is creating his niche in the international fashion scene. The education he received from the Instituto Europeo di Design in Barcelona along with hands-on experience as a men's fashion design assistant at Antoni Miro and a costume designer for the Festival Grec in 2006 lay a solid foundation for this up-and-coming star. Chidy has the opportunity to show off his flair in his first book, Essential Fashion Illustration: Men. @@
