"Tea with Lemon"




Oil on 5x7 hardboard panel

I usually don't drink tea, but after I made this cup of earl grey green tea and put in some of the lemon, I really liked it! It seems to be just the thing to have when it's cold out, and snowy, and we've had lots of cold and snowy lately :-)

  1. Beautiful china and that is one gorgeous and juicy lemon! I think you could have a second career painting fine china!

  3. Wow, I think I like this teacup best of all in your series; great edges, love the looseness and tone of that lemon, effective translucency in the tea water and lemon pulp, and the overall color has such a quiet mood to it.
    Really great.
    PS Thanks for answering my still life question- every little bit helps!
