Been out of the shoe drawing game for a little while, so I needed to get back into it (baby steps). I’m behind by a few shoes on my project of drawing all of my son’s shoes (in order of appearance), so I grabbed a moment today (while son slept) to sketch one of my own shoes, a black adidas trainer (pronounced as Herr Dassler intended). This is a small sketch (but a giant leap…er, no wait), in my WH Smith sketchbook.
#24 of 30. Trainers, or sneakers, or tennis shoes, or whatever they’re called. I’ll never say ‘a-dee-das’ though. It is ironic however that I absolutely hate shoe stores, I cannot stand the places. I hatebuying shoes, it fills me with dread. I also hate sports stores (except those devoted to football shirts, like the one in Davis, which is really cool). And yet I love shopping for adidas trainers. Not that I do it very often of course. But for me, once every couple of years or so is often.
