What Brought About this Painting?
Wouldn't these be the most famous shoes in the world? From a movie that has long been a favorite in my family, "The Wizard of Oz". A most beloved movie, every year for my cousins, my aunts, my mom, we will watch it every time.



Saturday, May 15, 2021 9:36 PM: I may tinker with it a little more tomorrow, but the Ruby Slippers are about done.

Sunday, May 16, 2021 8:02 AM: I did tinker with it a tad and updated the final image above. Let me know what you think!

See the real pictures below from the last time I was at the Smithsonian.

From Wikipedia:
"The ruby slippers are the magic pair of shoes worn by Dorothy Gale as played by Judy Garland in the 1939 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer musical film "The Wizard of Oz". Because of their iconic stature, the ruby slippers are among the most valuable items of film memorabilia. A number of pairs were made for the film, though the exact number is unknown. Five pairs are known to have survived; one pair was stolen from a museum in 2005 and recovered in 2018."

It's an interesting read on Wikipedia - I didn't know that one of the pairs of shoes had been stolen and lost for a number of years.

From Nov 28, 2015: That's my mom and aunt in the background with the actual shoes encased at the Smithsonian Institute. 




Just think, these shoes at this time are about 83 years old.

Because, you know, it's ALWAYS about the shoes.

A favorite in my family is the movie, "The Wizard of Oz". And those shoes are an iconic emblem that easily identifies that movie.
