How to paint a bag
Keep6 gallery is having a show called Eco-Bag, Eco-Life which features eco friendly tote bags painted and customized by artists and designers. Here’s mine (a bit of a rushed job, but I think it turned out ok). The bags will be on sale at the gallery and will also be on tour around the world – see the gallery for details.
I just drew straight onto the bag with a HB pencil. I have been rather busy lately so I didn’t have that much time to work on this, so I decided to do something simple and funny. Oh Noz is a funny expression to me.
I painted in the colors with acrylic paint. I was wondering if I could get away with not using an outline but it didn’t really work out.
Finished adding the black outlines. The waves seemed too bare, so I decided to put in lines with a white acrylic marker.
Here’s the final bag!
