Holiday Work VII
Today I have decided to include a special item in my collection. For my 13th design, I decided to design a tote bag. It’s like a purse but in a simpler design and shape. I got my inspiration from scanning through some pictures in the Internet, and I think its shape is very convenient.
For its shape, I decided to stick with the original shape some tote bags have, and I put interest on the pattern of the material, also with some stitching details. I got my inspiration for the pattern from my recent trip home to Bali, in this case I decided to use the Balinese style checkered material. The colors consist of black, grey and white. And for the stitching details, I put in visible stitching lines on the sides and some lines crossing each other across the surface of the tote bag. I decided that light colored thread should be used for it (e.g. gold or light blue).
For the sketch, I feel like I have made a lot of progress in making illustrations. In this case I put in a drawing of a huge hand holding a smaller version of the tote bag. It was very devastating drawing the fingers, so I did what I learned in an episode of Disney Channel’s Art Attack; I took a photo of my own hand with my laptop and used it as a guide to draw. It turned out to be quite proportional.
