Suff - Illustration Friday - Extreme




One of my goals is to be more creative in terms of collage/assemblage. (I can't draw a lick, so I give up on that!)

I found this site. A theme is given on Fridays, and one decides the media to use.

This week's theme is EXTREMES. Since I am hooked on Project Runway and What Not To Wear, I decided to do an extreme shoe. All the contestants in WNTW and all the models in PR wear high, high heels, which are very impractical.

My shoe is a butt-ugly one. If a famous designer slapped his/her name to this shoe, it would be a bestseller.

Materials used: packing paper (for the leg) with brown watercolor
polka-dot tissue paper
marbled paper
crocheted heel with NORO yarn

Darling, I just design the shoe, I don't market or make them!

How snobby I sound. HeHe

I don't want to be rude but the whole point of illustration friday is that you illustrate the topic - ie make something.

I did! It's a collage, not a picture.
Check the material list.

Too funny... I swear I meant to type "SHOE" :)
I couldn't see it at first. Very cool.
