'Hat/Cap' DC

The loverly Fairy friend Tammie Lee of the blog Beauty Flows was the proposer of this week's Drawing Challenge, one of my favorite pieces of clothing apparel: hats!

 
I have always been a hat wearer, ever since I was a toddler.  Probably came by it honestly, as a love handed down from my Dad's Dad who we called 'Pop'.  He had quite a collection, and wore them all - from fez to pork pie, top hat to bowler, cowboy, straw boater and everything in between.


 
Easter is less than a week away, with its Easter Bonnets.

'That's Some Hat!' pencil and watercolor in 5x7 moleskine sketchbook
I traveled home to Seattle this afternoon and sketched the cap beside me as we waited for deicing operations.  (It was snowing in Denver).
 

It is great to be back on the west coast, ready to start at the new studio later in the week.
Head over to Tammie's for a closet full of hats and caps by many creative friends.  See you there!

  2. My hat's off to you for your fabulous drawings. On a personal note, I couldn't wait until my mom finally relented about making us wear those darned Easter hats... I'm glad someone enjoyed them, though!
