Paint Party Friday - Neon Running Shoes

I saw this pretty girl wearing these neon orange coloured running shoes at the gym the other day. They looked so attractive, it inspired this piece today. It's acrylic on cardstock (11" x 8.5"). Later on, I saw another lady wearing a neon pink pair and realized these must be in fashion now. I have the impression they cost a lot too.

Linking to Paint Party Friday.

What a great painting of these 'in fashion' shoes. I'm afraid fashion trends seem to pass me by as I'm completely oblivious of what they are.

I've been seeing them too. Hmmm - might have to get a pair! Love your illustration of them - I feel like the wearer is looking down at them. Happy PPF!

I'd love a pair! They wouldn't see much running on these feet, though.

Love your orange shoes, Christine. I've seen a few of these neon beauties around. I agree that they are probably pricey.

Cool! I love how we (artists) can be inspired by such a variety of events and/or sites in our daily lives to create. Blessings!
