New Hat

About the artwork
The hat in this painting is not a new hat. It’s an old, beat up, possibly repaired hat. Maybe it’s an ancestral hat. I haven’t bought a new fitted hat since Derek Jeter retired so it’s something I’ve been thinking about often for the last several years. I’ve either bought, or been gifted, a new, or used, Yankee hat for every year I’ve been a fan, ever since junior high school. Before that, I was a fan of the Mets and the Giants because those were my dad’s teams and I didn’t know enough to choose for myself. The color way of the hat in this painting does not reference the Yankees or their uniform but the rose is the state flower of New York.
