Camelia Is Calling

If you can't buy 'em, draw 'em. 

I came across the Chanel Camellia sneakers and boots. If this was a few years ago, would have found the right time to physically find myself at the Chanel store in NYC just to look at them, but in this quickly speeding world of cyberspace, I got enough inspiration from looking at enough pictures of them online.

After sketching my camellia flowers and the boots with legs up, I had a retro outlook on the shoe even though the appearance is out of this world modern. Taking it to PSD, adding colors and a line or two completely changed by vision and I was humming Beyonce's Partition and seeing strobe lights. I decided to design my view of what a promo ad would look like if the song had been used for the campaign--- or even better, if these Camellia boots (seen below) were featured in Beyonce's Partition video.

Final graphic after my journey of this ride.
