Purse Drawing – First Try in a Loooong Time
Posted by admin | Under Crafting & Creating Wednesday Aug 26, 2009I got inspired to start painting again recently so I went & bought two canvasses & some fresh mineral spirits. I was all ready to dive in so I started sketching. Ugh… It’s been a while & any talent I may have had has pretty much leaked out over the years. My figures, which used to be my specialty, are particularly pathetic. At first it was very discouraging & I almost returned the canvasses to Joann’s. But I figured I need to start small again & practice on a regular basis to get back to feeling like I can draw.
Well, I’m going to practice by drawing a purse every week or two (or really when I can manage it). Here’s my first try – please don’t be harsh. I’m basically relearning how to use my hands LOL.
Juicy Couture orange leather handbag, found on Ebay – I paid around $40.
Hey, it’s a start, right?
It’s an awesome drawing. You have a very fashion designer style about your work
