Drawings for Erika

This is one of my current projects on the go for Erika, a chef.  She is looking for a 20,000 leagues under the sea, gothic, bohemian, chef motif with octopus tentacles, prawns, knives and bones.

This knife will be seen when the flap is lifted.  I will also put knives on the sides or bottom of the bag.  I didn't add any knives to the main illustration because I didn't want it to get too cluttered

 The two images below show how the pieces will look when attached.  I will move the drawings a bit on the leather so everything fits in the appropriate spaces.  I think I will change the placement of the octopus tentacles on the main flap to get rid of some of that negative space.
