Some things out and about.
Some random shots from inside the work and home studio.
So once again I’ve been busy making bags, the most recent batch is for a local bike shop Neil’s Wheels (website under construction). I made 5 of them in 2 sizes. Check them out.
Also I have another Courier bag project on the go at the moment. I am collaborating with my good friends Ollie Chapman and Iz lindsay a.k.a. KNOWN for there website launch in January. They created the fabric patterns and painstakingly hand screen printed it. I am currently in the process of painstakingly cutting and sewing 25 bags. More to come soon on these.
Whipped up this bad boy one morning for the lady. A leather Wash bag based on an old pencil case design. The leather was an off cut 2mm thick soft leather which was interfaced for stiffness. I was quite proud of finding a gold ring and matching gold zip. But what I was most proud of was my lining… looks sweet and I learnt something that day.
Some layout ideas while working it TILT.
It has been a while since I had painted a canvas and living with mother created the perfect opportunity to do so. Plus working in a cafe gave me plenty of time to doodle.
I think you’ll be seeing a lot of this colour combo over the next few weeks. Just some more deconstruction experiments.
Okay, another frame. This one a bit more classic looking. It’s a Corex President, Handmade in Korea for the track. As far as I can find there are only about 4 of these frames in England.
Eventually I’ll change my wheels to suit it better, box section or low profile. I’m pretty chuffed with my leather bar ends that I made myself last night and the twine finishing on my bartape.
That’s about it. I just wanted to show off my new ride.
So I aim to post some work or new photos real soon. I’ve been mad busy.
