These Boots were made for Walking...
2nd place winner of the 2008 Mildura Bush Film Festival (digital photography section).
Thanks so much to Robert Dye for supplying me with the name of the original artist for this concept. The Red Model was painted in approx 1935 by Rene Magrittes.

Hey Angela, amazing how well you`ve done this. The great thing is how low key you`ve made it… no big deal, no fanfare, just sitting there and ready to go… nice lighting and tonal balance too. The idea might have been tacky if you hadn`t done it so artistically and so technically perfect. This so works for me!
Glenn Alderson
Very clever!
Keeli

Angela, your blending appears seamless to my untrained eye…Well done its a great work :)
Robert Dye
This is the exact image as Rene Magrittes’ Painting entitled, “The Red Model”. It was initially created and painted in 1935. Wondering if this was your intention? Have you seen the painting, and wanted to relate the concepts behind the image in a new media? Hope you can appreciate my thoughts… Take care, Peace-
Karen Cook

Angela Stewart replied
Thanks Ed, it was displayed on a huge screen on the side of a truck at the festival, as well as a second screening at another local event. Apparently it will also be on display at a new local art gallery, which is opening soon.

Kind of stops you in your tracks, hehe…. Definitely stopped me. I had to check out “these boots” because it’s very different but yet very simple concept. Makes you wonder. Are our feet kind of like boots? We always use them, that’s for sure!
