Media: Oil on gessobord
Size: 6x6 in
Another set up with the Art Deco style teapot.
I fiddled endlessly with the composition. The teapot is not all that big and in fact most of my mugs and cups are taller than it, so everything I put with it looked a bit odd. Finally I selected this red mug so that we have a whole red and green theme going on, which I think works. Next mission... to find some smaller teacups for props! Not today though. At about 2pm I realised I had to get this painted quickly as the 30 in 30 challenge entry closes in a few hours. So I painted this in about 2 hours which is probably a bit of a record for me!
