k* shoes, fall 09!

this one is roxxi, originally inspired by Roxxi (aka Maggi).

it's wild to see this process in shoes after doing this for so long with clothes. starting with a drawing and then seeing it get modified by reality. this is fairly different then my very first drawing, but it's become it's own thing, a different shoe, a real one!

and this one is beatrix. . .
Keiko's k* event at the Standard Hotel in the Meat Packing district was awesome. I'm sad I didn't take any pictures. I was so overwhelmed by the really positive response to everything (not just my 2 styles) we made for fall 09 and all the samples for sp 10. It was awesome!

Dad will have to help me with learning to light my products better, because happily I might start moonlighting as a product photographer . . .

so cheers! here's what I've been doing "on the side" since January . ..
