this is a quick ink and watercolor sketch. When I feel my paintings are getting too tight, I love to do quick sketches with ink or just watercolor. I have many of my grandmothers tea cups - they are so pretty and colorful and I like to add them to my paintings.
I just fall in love when I saw this little teacup...The whole collection of the Wedgwood Cuckoo is so lovely! So i have to save to collect the complete Afternoon tea range....there are four different colours teacups, cakestand, plates and milk and sugar cans..
I'm so inspired to make a matching cupcake or cake!
It's been a very L-O-N-G day, and I'm shattered...
No inspiration tonight, just a burning desire to snuggle down in a warm bed with my book before lights out.
Well, after downing a hot drink and a wickedly delicious M&S eggy custard tart, thoughtfully supplied by my lodger...
Bless his cotton socks.

"'Teacups'? What? Outrageous! Speak not to me of your dainty, bourgeois teacups! We have a World Revolution to win here, so let them drink fluid out of their army-surplus canteens!"
"But Comrade Factory Manager! It's been scientifically proven that tea improves worker efficiency! And -- thanks to my industrial design training-- I have created a entirely new, Communist tea-cup! It mimics the decadent ceramic form-factors of yesterday's parlor tea-cups -- although it is made entirely of heavy-gauge industrial steel wire and cheap industrial cast glass. The two basic resources that our People's Republic and our own factory has in plenty!"
"But won't this cheap glass, with its pathetic attempt at female-friendly artistic embossing, simply fall through the cheap steel wire? This wire doesn't even loop around the glass securely."
"Such a failure of its function is scientifically impossible, sir! You see, the glass can indeed *rotate* in the grip of the wire -- which facilitates cleaning! -- yet it cannot get free and fall out, due to the steel wire's tensile strength and elastic modulus. Plus, the combination handle-and-support is simply sheared and bent to proper shape in one single, efficient action."
"Hmmm. It's not a bad conceptual effort, comrade -- quite political! Why, with such rugged, simple materials, we could bury the West in teacups! I'll have your plans forwarded to the Bureau of Utensil Improvement and they'll be in production within five years!"
I got my first Minifee head today! She is a sleeping tan Celine and I am SOO excited! She was a rather impulse buy, but I think she will be the mascot/representation of Historical. Dreams! I haven't decided on a name yet, but I think a face-up will help!
My love of tea and teacups manifested itself in a feverish round of favoriting.
