They're not hard to draw if you have a good "model" sitting right in front of you. <br /><br />I might seem silly, but why fake something that's so easily accessible. Dave and I used to make fun of one artist who looked like he was having a hard time drawing trousers. "Doesn't he OWN a pair of pants?"<br /><br />And just to be clear, I don't do this every time I draw a shoe, just when they're prominent or I need some specific details.Kevin Nowlanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13850394971503635916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2766774655052451555.post-17519692258487356922009-09-19T14:02:49.647-05:002009-09-19T14:02:49.647-05:00Kevin, wasn't there a secret about drawing sho...Kevin, wasn't there a secret about drawing shoes?Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09175836937348736472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2766774655052451555.post-69968867941253239522009-09-18T20:22:24.321-05:002009-09-18T20:22:24.321-05:00I really like your art! congratulations!I really like your art! congratulations!Pepe Larrazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07296222870517096808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2766774655052451555.post-20546077192358397382009-09-18T12:07:41.140-05:002009-09-18T12:07:41.140-05:00cool pic, great shoe art too.cool pic, great shoe art too.dylanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15651763465550549947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2766774655052451555.post-50582522066964338922009-09-18T06:58:19.427-05:002009-09-18T06:58:19.427-05:00This is one of my favourite pieces from the MM boo...This is one of my favourite pieces from the MM book, it's funny, just a little bit deviant, charming, quirky and totally original - plus great use of colour. I really like the Superman "Buggin' Out!" cover too for all the same reasons.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09175836937348736472noreply@blogger.com
