Vintage Jewellery And Zipper Purses!

Hello, and apologies for my lack of post of late.
Very Busy!!

One of the things that has been taking up my time (in a good way) is the Lilla Rogers MATS course.
The last assignment on this course was giftware and to design a zipper purse, make-up bag to some of us, based on personal collections.
I chose my vintage brooch collection, which is full of animals, bows and flowers.
Hyper-lush and symmetrical were two requirements. Perhaps not something I would normal use, but I loved the whole process.
Here's some sketches and the final hand in assignment.

Sun Bathing Spanish Cats!

I had the pleasure of drawing these two lovelies the other week.
I cannot divulge names as they are for a gift! ( I have been given permission to post : ) Promise )
Let's hope they go down a treat for the receiver.
More felines/canines basking in summer sun commissions please.
Most enjoyable to do.

Here's to nicer weather and longer sunnier days.
This weekend I even listened to this, as a cue for summer to hurry.
Happy Monday to you.
