Anyone who knows me knows I love a good hat.
This is my new Molly Moppit hat worn by the very talented artist who made it Rainey Gibney, the owner of The Josie Baggley Company http://thejosiebaggleycompany.blogspot.com/
I thought it would make a whimsical drawing and I loved Rainey's peaches and cream complexion and impish look.
It all started before I went to Dinan, France, and found her lively fun blog. Her art is very appealing to me. Full of whimsy and mischief. We got chatting through blogshere, then I painted her pink house, where Rainey used to live, when I got to Dinan just for fun. It was a cold day...but I kept at my sketch.
Anyho, our chats have continued and a good old barter system was worked out. The Chocolate Box House is now on the way to its rightful owner in Ireland. And my Bon Bon confection of a hat is on its' way to me.

What an interesting story, and yes I do believe the barter system is alive and well. I've really enjoyed your drawings each day--very inspiring! Love the hat and your painting of the pink house.
