Shoes, shoes, and stop-motion

[MEG FISH]

Hey everyone! As you all know, shoes are my thing. Right now I'm working at over ten pairs to sell at an upcoming festival in my hometown (Fresh Ayr Festival! June 19), along with other art and some photography.
BUT! The shoes I have are adult sizes, and I'd like to try to focus more on children's shoes for this event, because the majority of Ayr is kids (there are less than 5000 people in the whole town.) If any of you know where I could get some fairly low-priced kids shoes [like the ones below] please let me know, I'd really appreciate it! :)



In other news, I'm also designing a couple of tattoos, which is pretty exciting, including a new one for myself! Yay!
Also, for your viewing pleasure, one of my favourite stop-motion videos, by one of my fave stop-motion filmmakers. I'd like to try out making some of my own this summer :)

Update? ive never been on a date before!

Painters Pre-orders being taken..!!

Haha so.. Allison Del Vecchio here. I was prodded at to post information on the release of my book here... so, for those who are interested, here it is (and how to preorder)! It's a magical girl manga (like Sailor Moon...) and I did it completely in copic markers. So if you're fancy to that... well, feel free to order it. ;u; <3>
It's called "PAINTERS" by the way.... and I even based some of the rooms on our main painting room and the room is even called "L209" ahaha.. that's what is was, right?
Anyway I created it from the inspiration I gained from just being in the course. And made it absolutely magical and gay. :D

(Copied this post from my Deviantart journal which is here: http://oceanchan.deviantart.com/ )

Thank you everyone for always supporting me, through my art and just being a friend. I love you all!! ;o;
