Learn How to Draw: Fabric and Folds in Action
In the previous tutorial, Linda illustrated seven basic folds that may help simplify drawing clothing for your human figures and draperies for your still life drawings. In this article, she shows those folds on figures in action, and she demonstrates how body movements and certain fabrics create different folds. This article focuses on men’s clothing, and the upcoming article will hone in on women’s apparel.

Linda Goin carries an A.A. in graphic design, a B.F.A. in visual communications with a minor in business and marketing and an M.A. in American History with a minor in the Reformation. While the latter degree doesn't seem to fit with the first two educational experiences, Linda used her 25-year design expertise on archaeological digs and in the study of material culture. Now she uses her education and experiences in social media experiments.
Accolades for her work include fifteen first-place Colorado Press Association awards, numerous fine art and graphic design awards, and interviews about content development with The Wall St. Journal, Chicago Tribune, Psychology Today, and L.A. Times.
