Legendary designer Seymour Chwast and award-winning book designer Carol Chu have collaborated to create a charming, super-cool coloring book featuring more than 100 original shoe designs to color and create.
Shoes, Shoes, Shoes: A Delightful Book of Imaginary Footwear for Coloring, Decorating, and Dreaming.
If it's about shoes I'm 100% drawn in--and the artist in me loves the coloring book aspect; because I feel you are never too old to color!
Paired with quotes from philosophers, rock stars, designers, and many others , these shoes give visual life to some words of wisdom. Seymour Chwast, one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century, is founder of the world-famous Push Pin Studios, where he has created a style that is synonymous with the most creative and progressive aspects of graphic art and design.
This book was released earlier this month has an introduction by New York Times “Visuals” columnist Steven Heller, encourages fashionistas of all ages to let their imaginations soar.
Shoes, Shoes, Shoes pushes design to where it should go: to the unknown, to the new, and the daring. It's what high fashion is truly all about. It can be enjoyed by all ages. After you color the pages you can make a great art installation using the pages too.(post coming up on that topic soon)
