Drawing Class #5 Shoes!

This was hard. I had to pick a shoe to draw and there are just so many I love. I finally settled on a Reiker because it would provide a challenge. Easy to wear, difficult to draw. As usual, I get so caught up in the watercolor that I forgot to leave some white so that this patent leather shoe looked “shiny”. Instructor, Jane LaFazio, said that they looked good even if they were like suede. That’s cute. I love this class, the friendly online instruction and support from other students. More than anything (hard to admit) I need the deadline! I love having an excuse to draw and paint. Shoes were purchased in San Francisco years ago when celebrating a weekend with daughters and sisters-in-law.
