Tea is so yummy in the winter. And when you have the sniffles, it’s essential. So I have been brewing up teas in all kinds of flavors, painting, and curling up with great books (I’ll post more about those later) Oh, and I have been going to work everyday too. I was inspired to paint three little tea paintings- “Rosehip Tea”, “Green Tea” and “Jasmine Tea”. I made the tea cups quite vessel-like, with swirly steam whirling off the top. Joyful gals adorn the tea cups, figures inspired by a wooden candlestick that I recently painted (see behind the cut below)
Teeny tiny jasmine tea…

Here’s “Green Tea”, quietly meditating…

Here is “Rosehip”…

The inspiration- I painted the goddess on the giant center wooden candlestick- a thrift shop find! Strung rosehips are draped over the mirror behind her.
