A Bucks County woman is opening up about her battle with addiction and how art helped save her life, one brush stroke at a time.
Murphy is a self-taught custom shoe painter who never knew she could even draw until she put pen to paper while in recovery from an opioid addiction.
She does it all by hand, drawing the creations first on canvas or leather sneakers and then coloring in the intricate details with acrylic paint. The entire process she says takes about five days on average.One pair of custom kicks costs about $275, but the price includes the purchase of the shoes. From color blocking to character designs, Murphy has fulfilled more than 200 orders in the last two years.
