Shoe Making break

Hi,

I have been busy for a while as I flew to London to attend a traditional shoemaking course in August and spent september at doing shoes in my house as in my free time to practice while all the good processes aught by the friendly shoemakers James and deborah from Carre Ducker were still fresh in my head.

This does not mean I haven't drawn as I did a lot of research sketches before to launch myself in the adventurous 70 hours process which require a pair of hand-sewn shoes.
I realize that is always good to learn something new in life as I am a former leather good and as an absolute shoe lover this quite made sense to me. 1

Here are some preparaiton sketches and the following the shoes I made.

Bag designs 1

Hi,

In my professional life I am a bag maker and get much more involved into the technical aspect things than into the design process but of course I like to draw and like to make bags with leather and therefore this is quite an evidence to doodle bags or wallets for me.
