Custom Converse!

For throw back Thursday I wanted to post something a little different. Many of you may not know that I used to customize chuck Taylor's as more of a hobby. I TRIED to sell them for profit, however the work involved in creating them & making sure the design held up over time, was far too costly and would drive the cost of the shoes above what people wanted to pay. So I ended up just keeping them, or doing them for friends. 

I used paint, markers, sealers & any thing else that worked. I used non toxic sealer for the baby shoes.

The top pair I kept, & the bottom pair was for my friends daughter.

Baby Goat

Totally freakin weird, I know. Don't really know what I was inspired by when I did this, but hey, bein weird is cool! Done with copic markers on 80.lb sketch paper.

Christian

Here's a pencil sketch I did, while in san francisco. I Had this idea of a demon that was very quiet, didn't say a word, but always had this entourage of baby-like demon brood following him. very loud, snarling & drooling. the main figure just looks upon them with a smile in admiration.

skull & bones

This is a pair of custom painted baby chucks, I did for a friend.

Another baby portrait

Another baby portrait done for a friend.

John Marks baby

Here's a portrait of a baby I did, for one of the coolest attorneys, I've ever met. ( I know, I know, hard to beleive that theres a lawyer alive who isn't a bastard, and in most cases, I'd have to agree with ya.)
