Dr. Martens Waterwair

Ik kon niet slapen, dus heb ik vannacht wat zitten Pixelen.
Het is een afbeelding geworden als reactie op de ‘Croc Martens’ die je wellicht al eens op facebook o.i.d langs hebt zien komen.

Dr. Martens X Myrdin > Van Gogh’s Starry Night

My latest project:
Custom painted Dr. martens boots > Eleventh pair.

I combined two passions of mine;
painting/designing & Dr. Martens shoes !

It’s a long process to custom paint leather shoes.
Because one needs to keep in mind that the leather has to endure a lot when used.
So i used special leatherpaint after i thoroughly cleaned and sanded the leather.

This is the result of the eleventh pair of Doc Martens that i upcycled.
My challenge was; could i paint a pair of boots with the Starry Night theme of Vincent Van Gogh!

The ingrediënts :

1
Step One :
In Paintshop i placed the painting on the shoe.

2

Step Two :
I painted the leather in the color ‘old-canvas-ochre/beige’ as a sober background,
and with a thin black Posca i sketched the basic lines on the leather.
