inside the handbag

a segment by tangan punya kerja, bought plain tote bags from her before, haven't done any sketches on them yet.

i rarely use handbags, for the past 4 years of working i have been using the laptop bags given by the company. recently my fiancee bought me a cute handmade handbag, hence i could join this segment :)

wristlet for money and cards

compact powder, fragrance, foundation, and lip balm

novel

drink coasters, small sketchbook, copic pens, epoxy stickers, and glossy photo papers

currently i've been doing fridge magnets and personalized stickers for commissions and as door gifts for my wedding, i sketched when i have time (usually while waiting for mr fiancee) and hence i brought over the epoxy stickers as well.

too lazy to store the coasters, i put them on plastic :p been doing those using copic 0.03, the rough surface of the coaster make it fun to do cross hatching. i'll continue the sketches bit by bit when i'm in mood, which is why i brought all of them.

found out that sketching on the glossy photo paper is fun, too. just that it would need a kilometrico instead of  a copic. this too, i continue when in mood :p

been a bit of a bookaholic since i met my fiancee. there was time when we went to all of the used book stores and stalls in amcorp to find specific books, not to mention popular, mph, and borders as our main targets when going to shopping malls (aside from toys r us to find his transformers and artfren or art shops for me~). currently addicted to Tolkien, we're collecting all his books for now. since i take trains and buses as main transportation, when it's not comfortable to sketch, i'll read.

of course, they are the main things (my phone is not in, i used it to capture the photo). some other stuff i throw into the bag, would be hard for me to find when i need them.

used to bring my ipad before, as it's easier to do sketchwalking on sketchbook pro or paper 53, but leaving it for mom at home so it's easier for her to skype with the grandsons.

hence my share for the segment. wish u good days ahead :)
