On my easel~Magic Hat 2

This is a fun little piece I've been working on.  I use to love black silk top hats when I was younger. I guess I still do.  My father had a collection of fancy hats he kept up on a high shelf in his closet.  I remember even liking the boxes the hats were in too.  This painting is 14x11 painted on a cradled wood panel.  I hope to have it completed tomorrow.  Thanks for looking.
