Early Tea
My mother introduced me to the culture of drinking tea while I was still a very young boy. A fond memory was having tea in the morning before school; I called this little tradition of mine “early tea.” All this led to my love and appreciation of teacups and teapots—their different styles, shapes, and designs. It’s now a rewarding adventure for me to find these treasured possessions in thrift shops, flea markets, and estate sales. In these objects I see wonderment, hope, and shared memories … that’s what imbues these paintings and drawings.
