Altered items are fun because it really means taking anything at all and using full artistic license to re-create it into something else, or change it into a whole different product. I have done altered books, altered trading cards and altered calendars. I will try and get more photos up over time.

 

 

These canvas espadrilles were stained. I kept them because I thought I could fix them somehow. Then one night I got this idea to paint them! I primed them first, and after painting them I even put a thin coat of polycrylic over them.
