Description I\'m no good with Anime characters.
Frankly, they intimidate me to no end.

But, I still think these turned out cute--
even with my western handicap.

Art trade with the fantastic
for a perfectly miniature African Grey parrot.
Complete with real African Grey feathers.
Wonderful!

These shoes were painted with Liquitex acrylic paint and
sealed with Liquitex satin varnish.

Yay! I'm so glad you like them!!
I was going to e-mail you the picture, I just
got busy 'n sidetracked. I'm absent minded like
that! I so hope she loves 'em! I really had
fun painting them!

Oh she will for sure. I won't show her the pics yet as its her birthday or christmas present. I am still trying to decide which. Thank you so much for all the effort you put in to these. You're shoes are so cool!

Awesome! I love when it's a surprise!
Let me know when you give them to her.
I'd love to hear how she likes them.

Be sure to put them somewhere that they
will not get too hot or be very humid.
Constant heat & moisture would probably
make the sealant sticky. But, short of keeping
them above your shower, I think they will be fine!

Even though you were intimidated I think you did just fine. I can even see a uniqueness in way you drew the characters!

Thank you! That's very kind.
I can see things I've done and
they all have a subtle akin resemblance.
I call it having your thumbprint in them.
You have your thumbprint in your work, too.

I'm from the south. We have lots of sayings.
It's tradition I guess.

Thanks! That style is just something I don't
think I'll ever master.
