The Mad Hatter: 10/6 Update

Since I painted my version of the Mad Hatter I’ve been asked by many people about the card in his hat that reads “10/6″. Well, to be perfectly honest I never knew before the meaning behind this numerical set so I went on a little Google joyride. My findings were pretty exciting…

Apparently 10/6 (or October 6th) is Mad Hatter Day, a day reserved for silliness among the sane. It’s a wonder that we never celebrate such a day, which also happens to be almost exactly a half of a year from April Fool’s Day. To learn more, check out this site.

Another painting I just finished, this one is smaller than The Mad Hatter but I find it to be more favorable. I very much like the color scheme I’m working with on these two, I made very similar backgrounds for both and used a similar color scheme over all. You can view this piece in more detail on my DeviantART page for this piece.

Painted this the other day, I think I’m going to submit it to the MN State Fair. I’ve been painting a lot lately in preparation for a few art shows I may do this summer, and to keep my skillz up to date. I’m going to post this to my DeviantART account soon too, but not sure when I’ll have time for it.
