These Boots Are Made For Walking


"These Boots Are Made For Walking"
6x6 oil on canvas
Carol Horzempa


Nancy Sinatra's song was running through my head while painting this one. Walking my dog in the woods is something I do twice a day while wearing my favorite hiking boots. I tried to capture what I see along the leaf covered path on a fall day. This painting is part of the Shoe Challenge posted by Cheri Homaee on Daily Paintworks.

    Love all the movement and strong color! They look like they're going to walk right off the canvas.
