I'M A LITTLE TEAPOT, 8X10, OIL


When the earth tilts and the days get shorter, I get lovely shadow shapes in my breakfast nook.


Here the shadow of group of palms falls against a teapot sitting on the windowsill.


It's what I like to call a "happy accident", instant set-up!

    The shadows give the humble tea pot an air of mystery. Great work.

    Lovely relaxing and calming feeling to this. The shadows give it an abstract twist. Beautiful!

    Love coming upon a beautifully lit instant set-up! Love the drama in the lights and shadows, makes it seem abstract.

    Sometimes the best still lifes are found, like the light on this sweet tea-pot. That happened to me with a pair of roses early one morning.
