MANDRAKE Boots

The structural ornamentation on these boots is a figurative interpretation of the Mandrake undergrowth of the Minuteman National Park.  An edible plant whose fruit grows beneath the large, shady leaves, the gravity patterns are reflected in the toe bug.  The dye of the leaves was applied using an old masking technique from architectural watercolor renderings, the veins are hand-embroidered.

These are a Roper style boot, with low heels to facilitate walking.  The fiddle-waist is pegged with wood.  The welt is hand sewn then each stitch is ironed into place.
