Pink and Proud

Some new shoes! Pink is not usually my favorite color, especially hot pink, but the heck with it. I am an artist and I really shouldn't be playing favorites with colors. These shoes were plain ol' beige leather before I got to them. I used a bright pink tissue paper and cut cherry blossoms out of patterned paper for the details. Cutting those suckers out took quite a long time, although I do think precision cutting is a very cathartic way to pass the time. All-in-all, these shoes are now my favorites out of all the ones I've made so far, pink or not.
