Hand drawn, painted, and sealed onto vintage and pre-loved purses, Barbara Robinson has created wearable art, and taken fine art and fashion next level original with these cuties. Multiple fun, cute, and even some festive options. Clean gently - no solvents.

“I have always enjoyed working with the timeless medium of colored pencil. I love the freshness it can convey and I was very intrigued with the possibility of working on a substrate other than paper that would be functional. Why not purses? Haunting thrift stores, yard sales and antique shops became even more fun as I started looking for handbags that were perfect to upcycle and receive my drawings. I do love scenes from nature and I enjoy putting holiday spins on my pieces.” ~ Barbara
