Step into The Botanical Shoes, a whimsical, watercolour collection of fantastical footwear, by best-selling artist and author Billy Showell.

Each shoe, composed of vibrant blooms and delicate leaves, and accompanied by thought-provoking poetry and prose, invites you on a journey of the imagination.

Discover a sumptuous and inspiring art book in which nature's beauty blossoms into stunning footwear. This captivating collection of watercolour artworks showcases over 50 floral footwear designs. Each delicate shoe, crafted from astonishingly detailed flowers, leaves, and botanical elements tells a story of dreams, journeys, and the magic of imaginationβ€”from the elegant β€˜Frida’, the Rhododendron Rose Shoe, to the striking beauty of β€˜Luna’, the Tulip Night Shoe.

From floral high heels to botanical boots, each piece in this collection of over 50 singular shoes is a testament to the power of creativity and the boundless inspiration found in nature.

A work of art in itself, you'll want to keep this remarkable book close to hand: you'll find delicate new details and inspiring touches of Billy's imagination every time you open its pages.
