"Dreaming at the Millinery Shop"

This is an Acrylic/ Mixed-media painting that I have revamped. It was started at a portrait session with a model, and a mannequin wearing a hat nearby. The model was seated holding another straw hat on her lap. Originally the model's legs were in a position that made it look like I'd painted them incorrectly. So I've changed them to look the way I think they should have been. At the same time, I've added some new metallic paper, some corrugation, and some gold paint to give it a little more life. I added my signature, which usually means I'm finished.  I'll photograph her again in the future in better lighting, where part of the painting won't look washed out.
