Heart Evangelista has been sharing her artwork painted on designer bags for quite some time now and finally, she unveiled the process it takes in a video blog on Tuesday.
Evangelista was given a bag by Venezuelan designer Carolina Herrera’s team to paint for display in the latter’s “CH Insignia” exhibit.
“You guys are in for a treat! For the first time ever, I’m letting you in on the full process of creating one of my hand-painted bags,” the 33-year-old fashion enthusiast wrote in an Instagram post.
Evangelista also mentioned how she does only do this for herself, but also for her clients who wanted a “facelift” to their bag.
She recounted one time when a client’s bag was “damaged” and she mended it with her art: “Her baby scribbled on her Birkin and I fixed that for her.”
“Others just really want art on their bag, which I love and I can relate to,” she added.
The seven-hour process included sketching, adding details for a better composition then the actual painting on the bag.
Here are some photos of her other beautifully and intricately-designed hand-painted bags:
