Not only does this artist create delightful art, she also has a creative name and a lovely web site -
Artshus by Violet- as in art shoes or shoe art. Karen, creator of Artshus paints some pretty realistic shoes. The first time I saw one of her paintings, I thought I was looking at a photo of a shoe. I admit, I'm not a shoe person, I don't like shoes, and they don't like me - but these shoes are beautiful! Oh maybe these would work for me, I don't have to wear them, I can just sit and enjoy them.
Karen has this stunning red stiletto on her banner in her etsy shop,
Artshus by Violet, but you'll have to go look yourself. Although I can show you one of her original paintings of this beautiful
Pewter Stiletto, that is one gorgeous shoe! Of course I'd fall flat on my face if I tried wearing a shoe like that.
Karen also paints brooches, cards to canvases and murals. If you're a shoe person or know someone who is, you've got to check out this artist's blog and shop. And, she also does custom orders, so if you have a fav shoe you want a painting of, this is the person to see. Beautiful shoes!
Have a beautiful day.
This Vintage Velvet Pump is also an original painting, pretty amazing isn't it!!
