Cowboots (On The Hoof) is covered with multi-colored, vintage inspired boots, complete with topstitching on a background that was painted to look like leather. The finishing touches are the tooled silver hoof tips and horns. I love boots and do a lot of work in leather, so I thought I would pay tribute to the source. I have always fantasized about being a boot designer, and now I finally got my chance.
K.P. Mills is a fiber artist and theatrical costume designer recently transplanted from Las Cruces, NM to Cleveland, MO. She has designed everything from elegant period gowns to giant dancing rubber can costumes, and she has a real passion for vintage western wear.
