Shoes and watercolor

Here's my first watercolor painting of a lovely pair of shoes I bought with my grandma in Hong Kong at the Vivienne Westwood shop.  I adore these shoes, and they smell like bubblegum :)




I've been practicing more and more with watercolor and loving it.  It's amazing how fluid, flexible and freeing it is. I didn't realize how practical it is too...(can rewet and use when dry).  I recently took a basics to watercolor class by Katie Rogers and it's amazing what you can learn in a short period of time.    After working with acrylics, pen/ink, pastels, pencil and charcoal over the past few years, I think I've found my medium. :)

Onward ...for my next projects I'm working on maps..stay tuned...
