Edgar Allan Poe boots!

Are there any Edgar Allan Poe fans out there? If you are one, then you've got to see these knee-high boots I've been painting! Pictured above is what the boots looked like before.

  


 
That's just the left boot! The right boot looks like this now...
 The old man's blind eye is a reference to The Tell Tale Heart. "And then, when my head was well in the room, I undid the lantern cautiously –oh, so cautiously –cautiously (for the hinges creaked) –I undid it just so much that a single thin ray fell upon {his} vulture eye."
The beating heart is from the same story. "'Villains!' I shrieked. 'Dissemble no more! I admit the deed! Tear up the planks! Here, here! It is the beating of his hideous heart!
- Edgar Allan Poe, The Tell-Tale Heart
- Tell Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe

So, what do you think? Would you wear these out-&-about or display them as art in your house?

I painted shoes for Bethany (a beautiful bride who got married on the beach). She had a video taken of her getting ready. What a great idea!

The shoes are shown at the very beginning and at 2:20.

Love,
Miranda Marie

Atypical Princesses

https://www.etsy.com/shop/LoveMirandaMarie?ref=l2-shopheader-name

Fairly new to my shop are these Atypical Princesses prints! If you's like a print of any of these, you can visit my shop here: www.lovemirandamarie.etsy.com.

https://www.etsy.com/listing/165203312/sleep-walking-beauty-illustration-print?ref=shop_home_active_19
This is Sleep Walking Beauty. She's not your typical princess. She sleeps the days away and sleep walks the darkened halls at night. And as you can imagine, like every other person who sleeps as much as her, she get serious bed-head, dark circles under her eyes, and a bunch of drool slapped across her face!

https://www.etsy.com/listing/165205064/cinderblock-ella-illustration-print?ref=shop_home_active_20

This is Cinderblock Ella. She's happy because she just got back from the ball at which the Prince fell quickly in love with her beautiful eyes and cinder block foot. (She lost her foot long ago to some hungry rats who she thought were her friends!) Now the Prince is trying to find the beautiful young maiden who stole his heart... as well as his glass wheel barrow which she took in order to make a speedy get away before midnight.

https://www.etsy.com/listing/85533684/marie-antoinette-let-them-eat-cake-art?ref=related-0&is_wholesale=0

In case you couldn't guess, this is Marie Antoinette. And yes, I know she was a queen and not a princess. ;)
A royal know for her saying, "Let them eat cake" when referring to the starving peasants, chokes on her own words or should I say a piece of ironic cake! 

Each 9x12'' illustration print is signed by the artist with the title on the back and has a thick white border around the illustration to make for easier framing. Printed on high quality, thick Epson photo paper. The print will be shipped to you within 1 week of purchase and safely mailed in a stiff mailer.

Let me know if you have any questions. I'd love to talk with you! 

Love,
Miranda Marie

A Smooth Sea

https://www.etsy.com/listing/176587075/a-smooth-sea-nautical-decor-beach? 
A stunning morning sunrise on the beach in Brighton, England. Jetlagged from the flight the day before, my husband and I woke up early to take a stroll along the beach. This glorious display of color from God's divine hand made me long to be adventurous out on the open sea.

You can find this print in my Etsy shop. www.lovemirandamarie.etsy.com. Each print is signed by the artist with the title on the back and has a thick white border around the photo to make for easier framing. Printed on high quality, thick Epson photo paper. The print will be shipped to you within 1 week of purchase and safely mailed in a stiff mailer.

Let me know if you have any questions. I'd love to talk with you!
