Work on the shoe begins




After cleaning the bugs off, there were areas that needed to be repaired with some bonda. Nasty stuff! The primer applied by the manufacturer was dicey so major sanding was required.
Finally I was able to sketch out the first couple of levels. Pynchon's founding in 1636 was the starting point.
Each layer wraps around the shoe - 1600's 1700's 1800's 1900's and present day at the top.
