I myself love drawing shoes, doodled ones though not strikingly beautiful like these. You can surely tell that anyone who did this drawing must love her job very much considering long hours of doing all the crosshatching (and I feel my hand hurts every time I imagine her hard work 
)
I bet most of those who love browsing nice illustrations on web must have known Andrea Joseph. For those who don’t, go visit her flickr and don’t miss everyday matters and sepia. Wonderful works!
I think everyone would be always amazed every time we see such artwork.
Paper cutting is not difficult but it is not that easy either. I bet those who are
not really into it would give it up after cutting half a page. This kind of job
requires a lot of concentration. It is a tedious job that those with quick temper wouldn’t do it. So I guess Rob Ryan would be a very very cool person. His book of papercutting illustration tells it.
I have seen a lot of his work both in prints and web but I never knew whose works they belonged to. Now with this book in my hands I know his name and I know one more thing-He is also a writer. This book might not be this charming if he didn’t cut(write) words in this illustrations. It’s like the book has the feelings and makes readers linger more on each page.
Although it’s done in different medium, this book reminds me of Jimmy Liao’s book with lonely words on colorful illustrations.
In all, this book is a treasure and I really appreciate the artist’s hard work.
Visit his his site and you will see more beautiful works.
