Wide Brim Hat

A lot of work done today and more to be done. I started this early in the waiting room of the eye doctor. I came back to it and finished it about 15 minutes ago. About a 45 minute piece to draw and another 10-15 minutes scanning and playing with some color in Photoshop. Color pencil in my sketchbook. I could see her sitting on the back of a parked Vespa outside a little cafe in France. I might just have to add the Vespa when I finish it. :) Gonna go out and get some dinner and then it's back to work for me. Have a good evening everyone!

Sorry, channeling a memory of the old Billy Joel "Uptown Girl" video due to the cute hat and that gorgeous smile...

Wow, this one is great! I do think the Vespa, or a barstool at a old time soda fountain shop would really round out the piece!

Thanks again for sharing!
