I worked on this this small canvas (6 x 6 inches) and I believe it is mostly done. I was trying to go for a looser look. This will be up in the LAA Gallery in the next few days.

For me, this is how it typically starts when doing a still life. I like to make sure that the background color feels right. This is a classic case of using the complimentary color (red and green). It is also the time when I step back and make sure that I like the positioning/composition of the objects. I will add more details as I go!



I am totally having fun making these small canvases! Chuck Taylor Converse sneakers are my go-to shoe! I think all of my pairs have some paint on them. I consider that a badge of honor! I will be bringing them over to the Livermore Art Association Gallery or they are available on my Etsy Site
These are colorful – I chose bright cheery colors to capture the happiness that these shoes brings! This will perk up any room!
Do you have a favorite color or memory connected to your Chuck Taylor sneakers??
