Horn Hats. It Turned out well after much fighting. The piece became to complicated early on, I had to bring it back to its simple self. I struggled with the center space for a long while. The hat had a nice shape but took over the whole painting. I needed to pull the thing back and put it in its place by simplifying the shape and color. A number of the blocks got away from me for a bit. In the end I learned that I am working toward multiples of simplified forms that together create a complex tapestry. If one part becomes over-worked it can throw the whole off.
