T-Shirt Design Project- Kate Simpson



After researching the stiletto heel, I produced several images based on phrases or ideas in it's history. This gold card is a response to the fact that the pressure under a heel is greater than that under the feet of an elephant.

Combining the heel with the stiletto blade it is named after.
Biro and Paint

Symbolising the term 'well-heeled' which used to refer to those of a high social status. 
Influenced by Luke Dixon, using ink.

Image is based on medical problems associated with wearing stiletto heels and depicts an x-ray of a foot whilst wearing heels. I used pencil overlayed with tissue paper and biro.



These images were observational drawings using coloured drawing inks which I allowed to bleed, and then added darker outlining using black ink when they had dried.
