I have been working on this for several days, and although it isn't where I want it to be, I'll post it now before Friday sneaks up on me.

I wear so many hats in my profession and found this a fun illustration to create.

A floating hat, Holly branches in the sand, a sad goodbye.

Hats and Caps.
I have been working on this for several days, and although it isn't where I want it to be, I'll post it now before Friday sneaks up on me.

Above is a piece from a little educational book called Funny Bunny Hats for Houghton Mifflin. It was tough coming up with alot of different hats, but of course, I had to have a chicken hat in there!
Just came back from Berlin and had a wonderful time! We even took a side trip to Hamburg. I am a little sick right now though, and definitely jetlagged. But I'm already thinking where I should travel to next!

The challenge on another illustration blog this week is "hats". I really couldn't decide on one idea, so I did two. This is the FIRST idea. Here is the second.
Over-50 communities and retirement homes across the country have seen vicious gangs appear. Gangs of desperate old ladies terrorizing shopping malls and Sunday brunches everywhere. They dress in gang colors of red and purple and they call themselves “The Red Hat Society”. Wherever they go, they strike fear in regular, upstanding citizens. These Red Hatters have been known to completely take over entire rooms in restaurants. They giggle and cackle and prance around in their decorated red hats and wild purple wardrobe. They commandeer buses and descend on malls and hotels and casinos. Sometimes, they even bring their own oxygen with them.
Their origins can be traced to a poem, written in 1961, by Jenny Joseph called “Warning” (a very ominous title, indeed). The first verse reads:
When I am an old woman I shall wear purple
With a red hat which doesn’t go, and doesn’t suit me.
And I shall spend my pension on guns and ammunition
And combat boots and flak jackets.
I shall push people who get in my way
And steal stuff from shops and totally ignore alarm bells
And fire my .45 into the air for no good reason
And make up for the sobriety of my youth.
I shall go out in my red hat and make people turn their heads
And I will kick their a**** if they laugh and point
And I sure as hell won’t take any s*** from “the man”.
They are dangerous. Run for your lives!

With the impending retirement of Jay Leno as host of the Tonight Show, it's hard to believe that there is almost an entire generation who doesn't know who Johnny Carson was. For many, Leno has always been the host of the Tonight Show. When Johnny stepped down on May 22, 1992, it most definitely was the end of an era. For 30 years, Ed McMahon's introduction of "Heeeeeeeeeeere's Johnny" was the beginning of America's bedtime ritual.
The Tonight Show featured many characters during its run. One of the most popular was Carnac the Magnificent. With the name taken from the stage name Johnny used as a magician, Carnac was "a seer, sage and soothsayer". America's excitement piqued when this "vistor from the East" was announced by Ed. The bit featured Johnny, decked out in an impossibly large turban and cape, as the psychic, who would divine the answers to the questions that were in envelopes "hermetically sealed" and had been kept in "a mayonnaise jar on Funk and Wagnalls' porch since noon" that day. One at a time, Johnny would raise the envelopes to his forehead and announce an answer like "Dippity-do". Then, he would tear open the envelope and read the question printed on a card: "What forms on your Dippity early in the morning?" The audience would laugh or groan (or both). And so it went.
A: Bible belt.
Q: What holds up Oral Roberts' pants?
A: An unmarried woman.
Q: What was Elizabeth Taylor between 3 and 5 pm on June 1, 1952?
A: Clean air, a virgin and a gas station open on Sunday.
Q: Name three things you won't find in Los Angeles.
If a particularly bad joke met with a large groan from the studio audience, Carnac would curse them with "May a crazy holy man set fire to your nose hair." or "May a queasy camel freshen up your mother's evening bath."
I haven't watched the Tonight Show since 1992. I think I know why. Who could possibly top Johnny Carson?
He was a tough act to follow.

My submission for Illustration Friday's "Hats" is from artwork I create for Fred Segal Fun Style. I love working with them because they simply say: make the art fun, colorful and festive. The art work is used as stickers and cards that are attached to each purchase. I always include a hat in each piece. Hats have really made a comeback too! For the first time in my career as an artist I was legally allowed to draw Mickey Mouse for FS because they are one of the companies that licensed Disney characters for apparel. The third postcard and sticker is loved so much by FS that we have reprinted it almost 5 years in a row.

What a dreamy and lovely illustration!!
The image is missing. I will be back!
the thumbnail is catching my eye! can't wait to see it larger once the link is fixed. :)

Cute piece. Sort of Elsa Beskow inspired!
It might be my browser, but I can't see your image at the moment. The thumbnail is very intriguing though, especially after looking at the rest of your work. Can't wait to see it! You have a wonderful style!
My last post disappeared as well, and I had to re-post it.
