GARDEN SHOE ASSEMBLAGE Karen AnayaFall 2011Art 3032.01November 8, 2011

MY INSPIRATION…

MATERIALS… Human Made

Pink Ribbon Plastic Geese Uncooked Soup Plastic Pearl Pink Beads

Natural Made Red Rose White Flower Green Leaf Green Stem Dirt Rocks

GETTING STARTED… I decided to go with the complimentary

color schemes because I wanted to intergrate different colors to represent my garden.

I first used the spray paint to add some color to my plastic geese. I decided to use purple to help them stand out. While they were outside drying, I began decorating my shoe.

I used the pink ribbon to outline the shoe and hot glued the first flower in the center part of the shoe.

STEPS…

CONTINUED… I began gluing the pink dots to the top of the

flower. This was done in order to create a circular shape. I also glued the small rocks found in garden in order to create that organic shape and bumpy texture. The rose was also glued to represent a soft texture along with more organic shapes.

MOVING ALONG…. After gluing the pebbles I used plastic geese

and glued them on top of the pebbles. This fit just great for my garden theme.

FINISHED PRODUCT… When I began thinking about this project, I

wanted to create something that represented nature. I decided to turn my shoe into a garden and this is my final product made out of 5 unique natural and 5 unique human made found objects, used shoe, lots of creativity, and artist thinking!
