I made a new pair of shoes today! My brother gave my a new pair of vans for Christmas and I was so excited to make a new pair! My old pair is so worn out that I can fold them in half with ease. Like the other pair, this new pair has a bunch of black and white designs. Unlike the new pair, this pair had brightly colored arrows that are the primary colors we use everyday....well except for purple. I just like that color.
Like the other shoes, these are representing myself. However this time these shoes are really just representing me emotions as a whole. The arrows are used to show my direction. In many ways I know where I am going. In many ways I don't really know at all and am very confused. The primary colors used on the arrows represent that anything is possible. Different combinations of those colors can create any color seen by the eye. I think that it is important to show that the possibilities in life are endless. Each arrow also represents a path or a road. Just like the possibilities of colors, there are many decisions people make in life and many paths that they follow. The background of the shoes have my favorite india inked shapes and whatnot. This shows the craziness and creativity in my thoughts, emotions and actions.
I really like putting so much meaning into a design, especially one that I'm going to wear around everyday. It is like showing off a piece of myself to the world. It doesn't really matter if you like them or not because it has meaning to me. I'm pretty psyched on these shoes and am really happy with the way they turned out.
