Red shoes 2 - In Progress

I didn't get that 14 hours I had with the other shoes so this is still in progress. I should be able to finish it today. :-) As you can see my photo is terribly distorted so I just decided not to crop it and let you all see pieces of my back porch in there. Now you can see why I pay to have my artwork photographed!

Just wondering, are you using solvent on these? 11"x14" is a big background to fill!

Hey Kasie! Nope just the pencil. I don't fill up the tooth all the way or ever expect to burnish so that saves loads of time. Its kind of fun to have it speckly like I always do and still be able to get the shiny look of the shoe!

LOVE the red shoe...especially with the tag on. Beautiful work as usual, Nicole!

noticed is on an easel - do you work as such, or was this for display purpose?

Thanks Linda!!

I usually work flat and then just every once in a while I prop it up on the easel to see it properly and adjust a few things with it vertical. So I guess te answer is yes and no! ;)
