Hand Embroidered Tote Bags.

Recently I have been experimenting with different ways of drawing and creating new pieces of work. This week I have been hand embroidering this tote bag, I thought for my first one I would stick with something smile that doesn't have any curves. This geometric shape is something I have drawn before and thought I would be comfortable working with in this format. I stuck with simple pastel colours and used a dark grey for the outline, making the whole shape stand out. 
I am currently thinking up more ideas for more tote bags, these will go onto my etsy store very shortly as on ofd's. each bag will be lined with an embroidery stabiliser so when you're putting things in and getting things out, there will be no chance of you snagging a thread and ruining the bag! 
If you like what you see and which for something a bit different to what I'm doing, don't hesitate to contact me for a custom order! Email me on paigemitchelldesign@gmail.com

Photoshop Illustration.

A few weeks back I found my graphics tablet which I had completely forgotten about. Now I have a whole bunch of free time during my uni summer break I thought it would be a great chance to get myself doing the things I used to love and haven't done in a very long time. I did a set of three potted plant drawings, a cactus, an aloe vera, and a venus fly trap. These were all similar in colour and style (including being drawn into the same style pot).
You can buy these illustrations as separate A4 prints or as a set of 3 A5 here.
