Project of the Week: Shoes
A friend of mine requested a pair of customized shoes. After mulling it over for a couple days (I’ve never worked with ink on canvas before), I got to sketching. She’s a huge Peter Pan + Tiger Lily fan, so I took that theme and ran with it. Here’s a look at my progress so far:
-
- sketch and color test for one of the shoes
-
- line drawing on the actual shoe. that was kinda scary the first time!
-
- the peter shoe with some color
-
- not quite done, but you get the idea
Once I get a little more time on my hands, these’ll be finished and posted for you guys to see.

It’s a combination of prismacolor markers and microperm pens. The markers blend really well, almost like painting.
