Haute Couture


Originally named Hat Rows and inspired by a Wayne Thiebaud painting, I've changed the name to Haute Couture. For the last few years I've submitted paintings of shoes and woman's handbags to the Stockade Village's Art Show http://stockadeartshow.com/. This year's submission is a lighthearted view of high fashion hats, but also a statement of how we feel about ourselves, sassy, elegant, bold and individual.

  1. I like this format with all the hats and hatboxes lined up with so many bright colors.

  2. Very fun painting, Robin! I love the reflections of color from the hats in the shadows of the manequins.

    Thanks for commenting on my blog. I found you through a google search for butternut squash paintings - I was cutting a butternut squash and wondered if anyone had done a daily painting of one, and there you were. I'm glad I found you, your work is excellent! (Fantastic job on the squash, by the way.)

    Cheers!
