This artwork is painted in acrylics and then varnished so that it can be used indoors or outdoors. I've painted on an almost new Hunter's welly - a prestigious make which is why I left a small patch of black rubber showing at the top, to show off the label!
It could be purely decorative, or have a plant in it - or because of its height, it could be an umbrella stand.
The scenes are highlights of Scarborough where I live - the hungry seagulls, the lighthouse, the castle, beach huts, and of course, the beach and sea. Before I start painting, I paint the rubber surface with gesso to give the acrylic paint a surface to key on to.
Height 44cm/17.5"cm; sole length 26.5cm/10.52, size UK7
Weight 1153g
£30 free postage to UK Mainland
I still have the other half of the pair of Hunter's wellies, and am pondering ... what next? Please email me if you are interested in a bespoke design.
