Large hat 9"x12" oil

This was my third attempt at painting this pose.   Within the first 30 minutes I started over three times.  The model had dreadlocks so the hat does not fit exactly right but she looked great, I love the way the hat grazes the top of her head.  My favorite parts that I savored until the last were her hands.  I love to paint or draw hands.   The focus was on her head and neck so the simple or lack of detail and darkness on the lower arms are intentional.
