      I typically buy a pair cheapish shoes to wear each summer, preferably in an unusual color.  I couldn't find a pair I like this year, so I decided to make my own this year. These started life as a plain white pair of PF Flyers Center Lo.  Some fabric paint and a couple of hours later, they looked like this.

      Not a perfect paint job, but overall, I'm happy with them.

        They look factory. Nice work. Great evo potential.

            Thanks, guys.

            I've never painted a pair of shoes before, so it will be interesting to see what happens with them over time.

                Another lockdown project. Wooden hand spraypainted and then painted freehand using acrylic paint marker.  Took me about three hours to paint.  Eagle imagery derived from the beautiful tattoo flash work of Mr Paul Dobleman from The Brothers Electric

                          Thank you! The similarity to denim wearing is strong. Like wearing a pair of IH for at least 1000 wears, this paper has well over 1000 hours into it, spread out over the course of four years. It's definitely not commercial art. It's more of a temple for personal evolution. I could've stopped multiple times along the way and left it as it was, but I kept drawing over it again and again, so it was definitely not a linear evolution. Just a make it up as you go experience.

                              Looks like you discovered a new style of framing?!

                                Just a $1000 frame job hanging from a potted plant plant hook hanging from a dead tree branch! Nothing extraordinary. Figured I should get some publicity for these framed peace’s in the same way as my wearable art. Everything must be a multitasker these days. I prefer outdoor art galleries in the days of Covid

                                      Dug thru some boxes and found a few more porcelain bowls from centuries ago. These are going to @derivative666 if I ever get back to New Mexico in 2021.

                                      And I believe @Giles owns these if memory serves…
