It's a tall order to design boots for Big Tex. He wears a size 96. But one North Texas woman has done it.
Big Tex’ boots are being redesigned with artwork from Jessica Bonilla of Irving. She is the winner of this year’s Big Tex Boot Design Contest.She entered the contest along with 300 other artists. The finalists were judged on creativity and representation of Texas pride.
"I didn’t really think that I would win. I submitted my design and I hoped for the best, but I didn’t want to get my hopes up just in case," Bonilla said. "Very exciting. I go to the State Fair every year. So I think being able to see my design on Big Tex and take my annual photo with him knowing that my design is going to be on the boot, it’s an extra step in feeling connected with the State Fair."Her winning design features a setting sun behind a cactus with Texas wildlife.
