One a (week)day: Day 175 - Hats (shopping)

November 2, 2007

110207-hats.jpg
Piece number 175 (11/02/07). It’s been a week and now it’s time for another installment of Illustration Friday with the theme being “Hats”. My mind was EVERYWHERE initially with this subject. I ended up with hat shopping. I also kept coming back to a pillbox hat, and in my opinion there is no one who wears it better - so I put the two together and this is what I came up with. I am happy with the end result.

–UPDATE (05/06/08)– Original has been sold. A limited edition of 100 giclee prints are now available for $30 ($25 for the print and $5 for USPS Priority mail) INTL customers please email me for shipping costs. Also framing is available for an additional $30. All prints are on an art paper with a hand-cut signature.

4″x 6″:: $45 unframed original piece, $75 framed original piece. Once the original sells, limited edition prints (of 100) will be available for $25 (unframed)

Email for availability and payment directions or for more information - like larger and more detailed images.

the art

All my artwork is made of paper. It is only created using paper, glue, and patience. The works on this site represent the pieces that I am attempting to create each weekday. These pieces are available to purchase and once an original is sold prints will become available. Other work can be viewed on my main site - www.sagworks.com. Larger works are available to purchase as originals or prints through sagworks.com. I am also available for commissioned pieces.
