Skeleton

This is the rough outline of my skeleton. 

Shoe Meaning

My shoe has a plethora of meanings, all really lacking a central point. However, regardless of this lack of central point, they have become interweaving and significant to each other, relevance-wise. The starry skies symbolized the late summer nights I spent with some amazing people just thinking about things like whether or not the chicken or the egg came first. Smooth, rippled water represented the life held in everything and how it's always moving or changing. Cloudy skies with a red parachute falling towards the bottom were inspired by the song Parachute by Sean Lennon. The glitter on the tip of the sole represented glamourous beauty (because the other things represented natural beauty). On the inside of the shoe and even supporting it and surrounding it in the box, there were flowers growing just adding onto the natural beauty metaphor, also tying into life (along with the real branches that symbolized something organic). The obituaries on the box that the shoe was in symbolized death, however the box couldn't close from all of the flowers, branches, and the shoe itself, all symbolizing how life was overcoming death.

Inside da box...

Painted the inside green with a little brown to prepare for the vines. Shoe needs grass and clock on the inside but it'll get done!

Commenting for the Week

Last Friday I commented on two blogs: Alexssa's and Hannah's.

The box..

I'm going to set my shoe in here once I get vines set up to suspend the shoe.

Just experimenting..

No vines or real layout yet, but this is kind of what it's gonna look like. 

It's getting there...

I've already laid out most of the vines and all of the flowers inside of the shoe, I just need to find a grass-like material and a clock. 

Putting it in the box to see what it'd look like. πŸ‘Œ

The water side isn't completely done, just a few more coats of piping gel.
