Tea with Alexis

This painting is done for my friend Alexis. She is the voice behind Teaspoons & Petals  and she has open my eyes to tea and great food!

The first image is to show the processes of how I paint.  As you can see I dont use under tones. I always paint what I want the viewer to see first and then work my way around or in this case out.
It's not the norm but it works for me!

The second image is the final piece called "Tea with Alexis".
