Board in the lobby during "Farinelli & the King" showcasing some of my mood boards. My online portfolio on Wix has had some updates! I've added some images from "Farinelli & the King" and a new page to showcase my mood boards and sketches. Check it out here: Malotke Designs

Here are a couple of my sketches I have done for Farinelli & the King . While they're not in color, I am pretty proud of them. I have definitely come a long way in my sketching abilities compared to my Freshman year of college where I still needed to trace fashion figures.  In my mind the two most different characters in the show are Farinelli and La Cuadra. Farinelli is light and thoughtful while La Cuadra is cold and stern. When I think Farinelli I think silks, pastels, and soft floral patterns. As for La Cuadra I imagine deep rich reds mixed with a lot of gold trim, large ruffles and shine added to any surface (rings, buckles, buttons, etc.). Anyways, I am very happy with my sketches and between those, my notes, and inspiration pages/ mood boards, I was able to create some lovely costumes. Apologies for the softness of the sketches.
