After doing my last shoes, I vowed that I would prolly never do them again -- they were fun, but kinda hard to work with.
Anyway, my little sister asked me to make her some shoes featuring Bella and Edward from Twilight. Now, in terms of literary taste: I think those books are the equivalent of a moonshiney swill, breeding a whole generation of girls and writers and girl writers who are going to be using <strike>Rice's</strike> Meyers' opus as some kind of yard stick and that just makes me a little nauseous; and I wish a pox on her house and home.
However, I love my sister and so I said "Sure!" and promptly completed them a year later, while she languished in Antici
pation. Anyway, that worked out nicely cause it allowed me to just focus on the two main characters and anyway here they are.
The photo took a little bit of a beating, because I used an gloss varnish to seal them, and that made shooting them tricky.
Acrylic paint on white canvas vans.
Meyers' owns the rights to her sad characters and I was not paid to do this so don't you fret, Stephanie.
Okay, so I didn't realize this was a Twilight thing when I fav'd it, so then I almost UNfav'd it, but I think that's rude... besides. the drawings are beautiful. And. They're on shoes. And there's something delightfully romantic about having your feet stand lovingly next to each other. Even if it is a Twilight thing.
It's still just too pretty, and too sweet NOT to fav.
You have a lovely gallery; I'm enjoying much...

I was wondering about the shoes, when you use acrylics on the shoes can u actually wear them out without ruining the art on them? or u just have to be super careful?

I've about given up on resisting seeing the movie. I tell myself it's just for the lulz though.
