I thought it was time for a change of profile pictures . I had a picture of Tagura beach that Khadijateri took . I have had many lovely comments about that picture . But I felt like spicing things up a little .So I have replaced it with painting .
I mentioned in a post recently, I have a on going love affair with RED SHOES .I found artist Jacqui Faye, who paints pictures of red shoes , among other things . Imagine that ! So , I thought I would feature her painting named " On The Road To Morocco " as my profile picture .
I love the thought of a woman sitting on a camel and wearing high heeled red shoes . Can't you just see her on the camels back moving through the desert and those bright red shoes sticking out on the side ? OMG ! What a scandal that would be ! LOL!
I have had an on going love affair with red shoes ever since I got my first pair when I was 3 years old .They were a brilliant pair of red cowboy boots that I wore even to sleep .
I remember wanting those boots more than a candy bar . I thought I might die from sheer happiness when they were given to me as a surprise present .I wore them in the summertime with shorts and little tops that did NOT match the boots at all , lol . My mother would try her best to get me to wear sandles , but I never would .
I cried when I had to stop wearing them because my feet had out grown them .I kept them hidden at the back of my closet for many years long after I had to stop wearing them .Every once in a while I would drag them out to hold them close , like long lost friends .
When I saw this painting , it reminded me of those red cowboy boots . I just wonder where those red shoes are taking the woman in the picture .
