Illustration Friday (Tales and Legends)

Myths

Illustration Friday (Tales and Legends)

Artist Trading Card (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") collage, glaze, colored pencil, and pencil, on recycled cereal box. 

So many possibilities for this theme, alas executing some of them requires drawing skills I so frustratingly lack.  I may be stretching the theme a bit as I'm not sure if The Wizard of Oz qualifies as a fairy tale.  In any case, these are Dorothy's famous shoes, updated to include a modern heel.

Like last week, this week's artwork also counts towards my year long art project, Operation Marking Time (this is #58 if you're following along).

Previous Illustration Friday offerings: Plain, Stitch, 100%, Soar, 2006 Retrospective.
