That’s how it all begins, like most things that have helped shape our world, with a vision.

These beautiful visions dance in the designer’s head and soon they are turned into sketches on paper for all the world to take a glimpse.

I often wonder how many pieces of crumpled paper are thrown in the trash, before the vision is captured as magnificent as it is in the designer’s head. How many visions are scraped after they reality of creating such designs are realized as only a design best left on paper? .How do some visions continue into reality, when we all wish that it had stayed inside the mind of the designer?
These sketches are like my dreams, sometimes they are only sketches. Many times with a little tweak, patience, and perseverance they become reality.

When you recognize that shoe designers must come up with a creative and appealing design working with finite parameters (it still has to be functional shoe at the end of the day) you can further appreciate their artwork and innovation.
