Floppy Hat Portrait

Description

Floppy Hat represents the quintessential Australian sun hat. This one has attached itself to a working man; the hat has settled into a comfortable easy position that is casual but still conscious of its shade responsibilities. The man is in profile, wearing the floppy blue hat against a richly textured blue background. Warm skin tones and the soft white of his beard bring depth and character to his thoughtful expression. The portrait conveys a quiet, weathered presence with a touch of warmth and individuality. It would bring personality and color to a living room, study, or creative space.
