My Everyday Sketch Bag / Handbag

I bought this bag specifically for a sketching bag through Amazon.  I've tried various different bags but this one is my all time favorite.  It's not too big but big enough to carry the essentials I need for sketching.  And as a handbag, I don't normally carry very much with me beyond what I really need....wallet, keys, phone, IB, lip balm........and mace.  I'll often clip a small camera to one of the metal rings to the shoulder strap if I plan to be on a sketch crawl but if I forget, I have my cell phone.


Sketching gear that goes with me everywhere includes:

Thin customized palette made from a NeoColor II crayon tin
Small sketchbook (no larger than 4x6")
At least two fountain pens
Micron and/or sharpie pen
Mechanical pencil
Kneaded eraser
Mini sprayer
Ballpoint pen
Waterbrush
Tissue.

Thank you so much for your comment on my work :-)

I have updated this post (first paragraph) with a direct link to this bag. There's a larger one as well, if I remember right, but this one is perfect for me in size.
