Pump Art Progress

On the Fast Track--Cheetah Pump Watercolor on 6x6 ClayBord to be mounted to canvas cradle and sealed

It has been a lot of fun painting this shoe series!  If I were younger I would love to design "fun" shoes and of course they would have to be comfortable which pumps often are not.  I'm pretty happy with the shoe designs but haven't decided on changes to be made to either of the backgrounds.  Any thoughts or comments are always welcomed (either here on this site or in an email if you want).

I might want to make the cheetah's facial features stronger is one thought but I do like the background since it kind of represents their lair.

Kick Up Your Heels--Calico Pump Watercolor on 6x6 ClayBord to be mounted to canvas cradle and sealed

This one was a little tricky and I made up the design from researching calico prints and especially the bandana prints.  I would love to have a pair like these to wear with denim skirt and a matching bandana for a casual party.  I love to wear slings anyway.  I'm concerned about the background in the in between areas around the heel and the top by the sling ties.
