Marvel's Black Panther Inspired Painting by Benita

Acrylic painting by Benita Blocker, 2018.

Marvel Studios is releasing the "Black Panther" movie this month. They had a #BlackPantherFanArt challenge to get featured on their Instagram page.  I had some downtime, and I whipped this painting up pretty quick.  The statute to the right of the superhero can double for his hand being up or down.  

It has an abstract feel of claws or teeth. It is up to you to see what you want to see in the painting. 

Enjoy!!!

A Look at a Well Constructed Ladies High Heel Shoe

Steel/Metal  construction

These three inch heels were made in Italy, and they felt like heaven whether one is full figured or not.

These babies were in the back of my closet. Vintage. They held up long enough for me to vogue in them.

Dry rot is real.  These heels were over a decade old.

They were sewn and well constructed.

That metal bar was as sturdy as the first day it was placed in the shoe.

Looks like good architecture.  I wonder if any of the ladies shoes are constructed like this anymore?

Guess (Made in Italy) Shoes

I was told shoe companies used to make shoes more comfortable.  Well, based on this shoe, I have a new respect for shoe construction. Don't you?

Guess what? I found the original shoe box!
