Bags, Bags and more Bags

Girl with Bag...a sketch
I am always surrounded by bags. Bags, of course, under my eyes from perpetually designing my days to streamline endless details in order to allow for large chunks of creative time. That is a given. Bags with drawing tools. Bags with watercolor painting supplies. Separate bags for oils. Other bags for plein-air oils. And, of course, canvas bags for grocery shopping! It's a good thing I like them so much! Tom Auld has an amazing leather rucksack that is now perfectly patina-ed and soft that was a gift from his daughter. Mo Mosyjowski has a most creative canvas sling that resembles a log-carrier and is designed to hold her watercolor palette as well. And Lynda Rimke always has the most amazing canvas bags purchased for a song. Muscanvas offers some amazing canvas bags that are handmade.....love them all. Indeed. The maker is someone near and dear to me.....my son. Check it out!
