    The richness of the colors welcomes the viewer into the piece. You have an amazing way to create so much depth with three colors. :D

    This is so warm and rich! The color choices and the texture add to the sumptuous feeling. I like the simplicity of the composition; it creates really lovely negative space. And hurray for inspiring teabag messages… sometimes all it takes is a small reminder:>

    Your beautiful and exceptional work reminds me of a quote from a friend who is an ex-buddhist monk…as though he were sharing a cuppa’ tea with you…
    “(S)he who clings to a moment of joy
    Does the winged life destroy
    But (s)he who kisses the joy as it flies
    Lives in Eternity’s sunrise…”
    Your art speaks of this message!
