Darsie Beck Sketch Bag Review
July 13, 2021
I recently decided to invest (and it is a bit spendy) in a fancy bag meant for sketching.
For many years, this has been my sketching bag:
But when I stumbled across the Darsie Beck bag, I knew that I had to try it. I put together a video all about it:
I don't think that everyone needs a fancy bag. I've been happily juggling my art supplies since I started sketching in 2011. I look for spots to sketch where a table or a chair (and therefore my lap) is available. I sometimes even carry a sketching stool with me. That said, this bag does make things easier. I really love the platform and the exterior pocket on the carry strap.
I eyed this bag on etsy for quite some time...
...but then decided that I really needed the built-in platform to make the bag the most useful. Otherwise, you're still trying to juggle a paint palette and a book and that's not easy!
So, my overall review is: I'm glad I got the bag. There really isn't anything else out there like it!
