Creating handmade "Wearable Art" in a variety of sizes and shapes.

Hi! I'm Connie Gunderson, and I am a handbag artist. My work reflects my love of textiles. My intention is to bring dynamic beauty, artfulness, and functionality to simple handbag designs.

Inspiration comes directly from the textile or cork. It speaks to me! Its colors, patterns, and textures become an image in my mind of what it wants to become. I create that inspiration and include functionality into the handbag design. Those functions include crossbody straps, pockets, zippers, and a lightweight handbag to make it a user-friendly and secure vessel.
