Wedding Shoes (Marcum)

by Godfrey J. Ellis – 9×14 Acrylic Dec 2024

Here is a fun little extra that I painted as a Christmas “stocking gift” for my granddaughter who just got married. To our delight and surprise, they had purchased matching tennis shoes in her wedding color to wear with his suit and under her wedding dress.

I took out the sidewalk cracks because it divided the photo into four pieces without adding anything at all to the painting. The shoes were surprisingly complicated since they were all the same color but were in layers.

Below are a few photos of the painting as it developed.
