acrylic on a canvas bag
13 x 13 inches

This is one of my earlier You bags, when I was still figuring out just how much paint I could get away with. Too much and the paint cracks easily when the bag is used; too little and the paint wears down quickly. This was my first attempt at a portrait on a bag, and this is a self-portrait tote that I made ten years later.
