Oh no! You have dainty feet as well as pretty bras! Beautiful.

Thanks for visiting my blog, Andrea. My photos were taken just north of Builth Wells. (We live at Newbridge on Wye)

I can't recall how I found your blog - probably indirectly through an Illustration Friday blog of someone's. Do you enter that ever? I've been a regular of yours for a while now. Still waiting for that cup of tea. xxx

I don't know which is better... your drawing skill or your taste in shoes and bags!

Unknown said...

I had to come here too to see them in the context of your blog. Flickr definitely a nice definition but i love seeing your drawings posted here. It's like... they're home. Anyway, another brilliant piece of art right here. I think i would purchase all three because i couldn't make up my mind -- they're all so cute. But of course, they would have to be purchased online (the whole denial issue!!!). Love' em, Andrea.
Size 40?

Thank you all.

They are definately NOT dainty feet though. Size 41 in fact - so Gretel you probably could get your plates of meat in them! I actually drew around my shoes for this one so clicking on the pcture should shoe the exact size of the shoe. I think that's how it works??

Cheers guys.

Wow, great shoes Andrea. Love the shine on them as well as the delicacy of the whole painting.

I love this drawing. The colors and the details are so beautiful.
You seem to be obsessed with shoes. :)

Tracy said...

oh so pretty. love the lines and the light.
(now i'm curious what size 41 translated to usa sizes would be.LOL)

suzanne cabrera said...

You're just getting too good at all this....and wow, what a fan club you have. Congratulations.

I love each and every one of your new shoes. I hope you wear a big size so that next time I'm in Wales I can borrow a pair.

suzanne cabrera said...

Hmmm...just read that you wear 41. I think I'm a 42. Perhaps you'd let me stretch them out?

Size 41! Wow in our measurement that is gigantic! We go in for sizes such as 6 or 8 to fit a typical Aussie woman's foot.
Lovely shoes. I'm not a shoe botherer, don't even polish them except for a funeral.

These are so lovely!
I'd go for the middle one, or the left one...but the three of them together are simply wonderful. I love the tiny tiny lines you draw:)
Glad I found your blog*

Andrea, you have a lot patience. the shades a volume that you get in your drawings is amazing. I hope you'll make lots & lots of money selling your drawing, hahaha, really!!! best wishes, Martín.

HI Andrea, et al,
Some have asked what does a 41 translate to in US sizes. It is a 9 1/2. Andrea, I have to tell you that my shoe I just painted is a 9 1/2. thus a 41. I'm sure they would fit you perfectly! A 9 1/2 is just right in length for me, but I've really got to get wide . . .
You know I LOVE this drawing!

Damn Andrea - you never cease to amaze me. You are the true Velvet Texture Queen of the World.

I love the three shoe "heads", like puppets almost. They do seem to have personality. And that middle one really wants to be on my foot :)

Claudia said...

They are so nicely done! Good work!

Ya know in my experience, art people aren't usually as hip with the clothing. Love the shoe, especially the softness in your renderings.

Emma Pod said...

These are darling shoes! Love the shapes and colors.

Majeak Ann said...

I want them all, love pumps, and mary-janes, and flat slippers, hehe!
Haven't hear from you, how are you?
Sending hugs lovely!

Such soothing use of colour. I only have 4 pairs of shoes and no handbags or purses. Funny creatures, people are!

I just had the pleasure to see all of your latest drawings at once. Because I neglected your blog for to long ...

Your own style is more and more coming through. I'm as always very impressed. So beautiful. I think, the cat's toy is my favorite, but I love all your drawings. Beautiful!
