High Tea

August 12, 2016

High Tea   5"x7"  watercolor on paper

I have had quite a few tea parties, and enjoy a ritual of tea every day - often more than twice! - and so I know precisely how my little mouse friend feels. Here is her miniature accompanying story: 

Celia Mousekins has a great fondness for two treats, sugar cubes and Earl Grey tea. Here she has combined the two pleasures in one, and gives it a stir, as she enjoys a mouse sized version of High Tea.

Live Painting at Renaissance & Papyrus

Like these little kittens, my bags are packed and I’m ready for a trip to my favorite store for a live painting demo. I will be working on a new illustration from 10am-3pm at Renaissance & Papyrus in downtown South Haven. If you’re near by, stop in and say hello, catch a glimpse of my working process, and be the first to see my new un-shared illustration!

It’s a lovely store, full of lovely things, all around loveliness, and lovely ladies.Hope to see you there!
