Kaida Ames, 10, left, receives help using a heat gun from artist Eamon White at a shoe design and customization workshop Saturday at LA Arts in Lewiston. On the other side of the table, Dominic, 8, receives guidance from his father, the artist Dara Kheang. The two artists teamed up to show attendees how to work through the entire shoe design process, beginning with designing the artwork on a shoe template and ending up with a piece of wearable art. “They can express themselves and showcase their art in the way that they want,” White says.
