Red Shoes

MCN: CEDRS-1EF6S-KVMRC

The fairy tale The Red Shoes is one of the most disturbing and scary ones I know. Andersen wrote a few of those.... however, the picture of the red shoes is one I keep coming back to in my mind. Here's a poem I wrote called plans that I felt worked with the picture.

Part of my new series of images for licensing on Arcangel-Images

I've always loved this stock image. It's so cool, but I couldn't think of anything to do with it, because it was perfect as it was, however, then this idea came to me. It reminds me of the scene in Gone with the Wind where Scarlett makes herself a dress from the drawing room curtains. I love the make and mend idea behind this and the fun red shoes. A girl doing for herself and having fun whilst doing so. :-)

The Witch is Dead! - Photo Manipulation

 

Welcome to the alternative, dark version of Oz, where the witch is well and truly dead (although, personally, I think that's a shame), where the Tin Man has been turned into scrap metal and the Lion into barbecue. ;-)

Read the interview here.

Inspired by the interpretations of Oz as found in Stephen King's Dark Tower series and Tad Williams' Otherworld
