Lizzy Original

The Story Behind Lizzy Original

This painting is part of my In Their Shoes collection, where I connect with individuals, hear their stories, and paint their shoes as symbols of their personal journeys.

The Journey of Red Original captures the story of a pair of beloved red boots that have traveled across continents and phases of life. Bought in 2012 during a move to China, these boots have endured snow-covered Beijing streets, desert sands at Burning Man, and countless milestones—from youthful exploration to the settled rhythm of family life.

"These shoes symbolize a life well-lived, reflecting transformation, resilience, and the joy of embracing every phase of life."
