Remember the time when you baked a cake and invited friends over to your place for a cosy tea party? You put a kettle on, brewed tea, brought in the cake. Roses looked gorgeous on a table. What a memory! The best things is there is no calories consumed this time. Because it’s just a painting.

One of the paintings from the Tea Time Series that are bubbling with colours. I tried to create an inviting warm feeling of a tea party. My still lives from the Tea Time Series are telling stories about people. Although people stay out of the picture, their presence is felt. It was them who set up a table, baked a cake, put flowers in a vase and poured tea into a cup. They can be back any minute. It’s about someone’s tea party, a birthday celebration or a get-together with a close friend. Bent crawling spoons, dancing cups and tea pots add dynamics to otherwise would be static still life paintings.
