New shoe painting



 




 

"Pink is the navy blue of India" 
Diana Vreeland 

 This is with a twinkle to all my friends from India here in blogland. Even though i've never been to that mysterious and exiting country, it's colors seem to be in my blood somehow. Pink and new shoes - what better way is there to add some extra energy and exitement to the week to come?

Here, the  crisp, clear light of late summer days shines into my office and brings out every detail and color so brightly. I just love this time of year, don't you? Come and have espresso with me!

    If I could, I would be RIGHT THERE to sit with you and take slow sips of an energizing expresso my dear! I would admire not only the colors but the textures of your beautiful work! I too love the way LIGHT comes into my studio and the rest of my home where I create.

    PEACE and much love to you! Anita

    Ah, great minds think alike. I've been busy painting footwear, too. Adore the above images especially the first. Don't you just adore fashion and art;-)

    Oh these shoe paintings are wonderful. I agree that the colors evoke energy and excitement...
