sketching and hooking red shoes

April 7, 2013 by Birdbrain 2 Comments

 

I was away on the weekend so I had a chance to sketch more than I usually do. I am thinking of hooking my shoes, so am doing some sketches first. I got the idea in class at Hooked in the Mountains last November where I ended up hooking the red high-heeled pump below.

I went searching for this image from one of David Hockney’s sketch books. Then here are some pics from the Mulberry, which I visited two days in a row. Great architectural details, great coffee, great sketching ambience. I’ve posted more pictures on instagram. Click the button on the right to check them out.

    I love the red shoes! I think it would be an amazing hooked piece.

      Thanks, Mary Anne. I should have the shoes on the backing to start on Wednesday.

      See you a week today. Maybe I’ll have one shoe done by then!
