Art&Jazz is an event for Scheveningen and young and old (like 99%) people has visited our home stuffed with art like sjawls (Noah), jewelry (Andree), fine arts (Nelleke) and leather art (that's me).
Wall Art designed by me for NPex The Hague. I went to the Haagse Market and bought 50 fabrics and nailed them on wooden frames. Also helpful when your collegue talks too loud; the neighbours will not complain!
A very well organized event in The Hague, all artists are opening there houses and ateliers. Sold a few bags, vases and bracelets but the most interesting are the people who are looking at your work, but more important: looking at your house! It has something voyeuristic, the art route....
Handmade by the designer (me) a new type of bag, based on the plastic ones you get on the market. Only this one is made by leather and you can not carry fresh fish in it.
The size is a bit bigger because I always feels stressesd when my phone rings and I can not get him out of the pocket (and brake your nails and miss the call....).
The Sheleterd Workshop (sociale werkplaats) The Hague made 120 pieces of very nice and hip bags for me. Also for iPhone, iPad and glasses/pencils. You get a warm feeling when you see all those people with small handicaps working so hard and enjoying their work so much!
Today I made this fruit bowl from leather. Also handy to put all kinds of stuff in like pencils, keys and cell phone. Or if you are ill and must vomit.
Lisette, my friend, purchased this bag second hand (I have used it before her) but since she is the most sustainable woman I know, that fits in her concept
