Five Minutes of Fame In The Background







About 18 months ago I worked on a film called The Other Man
starring Liam Neeson, Antonio Banderas and Laura Linney as a shoe designer. I provided lots of shoe drawings and sketchbooks for the set dressing. I wrote about it here a while ago, wondering if the film would hit the big screen. Now it has, phew!

I have gone over all images I could find of the film with a microscope and found evidence that I wasn't consigned to the cutting room floor after all. Don't laugh, here they are:



















The Shoe Shop wallpaper!

    Rosie, I've liked the pink-&-green glamour gal since I first saw her, but the shoe wallpaper is a real beauty! In addition to your cool design ability, you've got a killer color sense. That design should go into real-life production.

    Rosie, very beautiful wallpaper - it has all the grace of a 50's end paper. What a delight! Good pun, too.

    thrilled with everyone's kind remarks. Trouble is, I haven't a commercially savvy bone in my body and hopeless about marketing myself.

    Rose, I love that wallpaper! Just think how wonderful it would be if one couldn't afford many expensive shoes . . . at least one could have wallpaper!

    Thanks for sharing!

    Blessings,
    Teresa
