"It's All About the Hat!" by Mia Langford

Pleasure Ridge Park High School • Grade 10

For this piece, I used acrylic paint. When planning the artwork, I knew I wanted to do something with hats, which is definitely a large part of the Derby tradition. I decided that the race may as well run around the hat! And of course, you can find this fashionable lady with a mint julep in hand right in front of the Twin Spires.
