This painting is a vibrant and energetic representation of a high heel sling back shoe, rendered in an abstract and expressive style.
Red dominates the painting, the sling back strap is particularly striking , with long curving lines. The pointed toe and the slender heel of the shoe are also present , albeit in a stylized and abstract form that compliment the painting.
Despite the abstract nature of the piece the viewer can still discern the basic shape and structure of the shoe.
I feel I have captured the essence of the shoes elegance and sophistication, while also infusing it with a sense of energy and vitality .
Aglaia is the name of one of the Three Graces in Greek Mythology.
