Ahoy Octopus!

I love it when someone orders a pair of octopus shoes! This is my fifth pair of octopus shoes so far, it's been really fun to think up different ways to do the same theme. For this particular pair, the customer wanted pirate octopi in her fav colours; pink and aqua/turquoise.

I'm so happy with how these turned out, and I'm still totally in love with the new style of high heels I have in stock.

Would you like a Doe-nut my Deere?

I've been painting these shoes for a while now, and they're finally finished and on their way to sunny LA! See if you can guess who they're for (there's a hint in the post title!). I don't think I'll ever get bored of painting donuts on shoes, they're just too darn delicious.

You can find work in progress shots of these shoes here and here. You can get your own pair of customised stilettos in my Etsy Shop or email me at ponychopsshop @ gmail.com

Silly Shark Stilettos

When I got asked to do some shark themed shoes I knew it would be a challenge. I've never drawn or painted sharks before, and they're not exactly the friendliest, kawaiiest looking of creatures. After browsing lots of shark pictures and dooding away, I eventually realised sharks actually look pretty adorable if you just draw them a smile. These shark stilettos won't bite you, they'll merely nibble at your feet in a friendly sort of way.

These shoes are now on their way to one of my fav US bloggers, I cannot wait to see how she styles them!

Edited to add: I just realised it's Shark week! I hope these Sharky babies get to their new mom in time to celebrate it!

The Dainty Squid and her Kitty shoes!

I've been meaning to post these photos for almost a year now, I'm so forgetful! Some of you may remember, last year I painted a pair of shoes for Kaylah from The Dainty Squid.

I'm a big fan of Kaylah's blog, so it was an honor for my shoes to be featured on it. I based the shoes on her lovely cats. It was one of my first sets of cat orders, I seriously can't get enough of painting cats on shoes!

These photos were taken by Kaylah for one of her outfit posts, you can see the full post here. I think we'll all agree that she absolutely rocks this look, I can't imagine anyone more suited to kawaii kitty brogues than Kaylah.

Zelda Brogues

I did these Zelda fan art shoes a few months ago, they were one of my favorite projects to work on. I love taking inspiration from others drawings and work to create my own, it definitely helps me learn to progress my own style.

All characters are copywright of Nintendo. This is purely my own take on the Zelda & Link Characters that were created by Ninendo.

The Original Skull Brogues

These were my first set of skull shoes! I was inspired by rockabilly style. I still love these colours together, what's better than bubblegum pink and mint green?

Baby Blue Mushroomy Cuties

Remember the Work In Progress post I did on Wednesday? Well here are the finished brogues. They were a custom order, the customer sent me her lovely office baby blue brogues for me to paint.

There's something about painting mushroom shoes that makes me so happy. I think this is the 4th or 5th mushroomy pair I've done so far. I just love how different each pair has turned out.

A little Mushroom gif

Hi guys! I hope you are all having a great week so far! I've had lots of painting to do so hopefully I will get around to uploading some pictures of my newest works pretty soon.
Other than that I've been baking lots, trying to figure out some awesome pumpkin recipes to put on the blog. So far the results have been a bit disastrous. Lets just say dying pumpkin cakes purple turns them a yucky grey-ish brown, oops! Hopefully tomorrow will bring me a yummy cake recipe or two.

For now I'll leave you with a little work in progress gif of some shoes I've been working on. I forgot how annoying gifs are with watermarks, eww.

Monochrome Stripes & Ice Creams

This is a custom order I finished last week. As you already know I love drawing happy kawaii things so I was please when the customer asked for kawaii ice creams! She wanted the main colour scheme to be black and white to go with the rest of her wardrobe, so I thought monochrome stripes would be fun.
