Members Hedge Posted April 11, 2008 Members Report Posted April 11, 2008 You did it again, Tina! I do believe you've found your calling. Quote
Members Tina Posted April 11, 2008 Author Members Report Posted April 11, 2008 Myriam, You're so right, I was going for that lovely weathered look. It's very appealing to me. Collection item huh? Well, up close it has some flaws, not huge but it isn't perfect:-) kagekeeper...Your making me explode *LOL* Great Thank you. sodapop, I did try to make it gender neutral due to a camera case can be used by both. I'm very new to this too and had no idea it was in me *S* Patience and more patience, some stuburness mixed with a "I can" mantra will go a long way:-) Hedge, I would like to think so too:-) I just love leather in general but I never thought I would be able to make things like bags/purses or what ever i can come up with. The technique of carving and tooling leather has endless potential and only ones imagination can put up boundaries. Quote "He who works with his hands is a laborer.

Members Pauly Posted April 11, 2008 Members Report Posted April 11, 2008 Far out! Pleasure to see such a nice object. It's sure to be treasured and should outlive us all. Quote Dark is a way and light is a place.
faceOdd Posted April 11, 2008 Report Posted April 11, 2008 Tina, That is absolutely beautiful. I know it's hard to put it out there for public critique at a show, but I really do think you should give it serious consideration. I, for one, would love to see this piece in real life. It's truly a gem. ~Tammy Quote faceOdd wearable art masks www.faceoddmasks.com
Members Tina Posted April 11, 2008 Author Members Report Posted April 11, 2008 Great Thanks Pauly, I also hope it will last for a looooong time:-) Not just hard Tammy, down right scary if you ask me, and Super thanks you for your nice comments:-) Quote "He who works with his hands is a laborer.

Members Tina Posted April 13, 2008 Author Members Report Posted April 13, 2008 Thanks Linda, very sweet of you:-) Happy you like it Spider *S* I found that buying "hair on cow" for small pieces on ebay got my inspiration going + I did not know how to wetform the sides (yet) so...I just used the hairy cow...Anything goes:-) Quote "He who works with his hands is a laborer.

Moderator Johanna Posted April 13, 2008 Moderator Report Posted April 13, 2008 Hey, Tina! Send me hubby's phone number, and I'll try to convince him! I'm still hoping we can meet in Michigan City later this month. Nice bag, thanks for sharing! Johanna Quote You cannot depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. - Mark Twain
