A while back, I did a painting of my sister's tennis shoes. This time, I decided to paint my own. There seemed to be something patriotic about painting a pair of blue Converse shoes. Happy 4th of July!

My sister made a comment to me the other day that she thinks it's funny that I love certain pairs of my shoes so much that I even make paintings of them. Well, little sis, here is further confirmation of that fact! I also had a great time painting the wool rug that the shoes are sitting on.

On Monday morning, I woke up a bit tired and cranky...and late. I got dressed pretty quickly, and set one of my favorite pairs of shoes by the door while I ate some breakfast. As I was sitting down with my cereal, I glanced over and my shoes were sitting in a beautiful shaft of morning light. I grabbed the camera and snapped a few pictures, because I knew this was what I had to paint! It is amazing how one simple moment can change the outlook of the whole day.

When I woke up this morning, I decided I wanted to paint something blue, most likely because the other pieces I have done this week have been dominantly red or green. The bluest thing I have is my old pair of blue tennis shoes, which just happened to be sitting next to the coffee table in a pool of morning light.

Typically on Tuesday nights, I go swing dancing at the Handlebar. However, there was no swing last night. So instead, here is a painting of one of my swing shoes. Swing dancing is one of the things that truly makes me happy, and allows me to escape, even if only for a little while.
