The White Porcelain Cup



I completed this small still life alla prima last night.

This past weekend, I was rummaging through some old boxes filled with mementos from our old family home when I came across this lovely little porcelain mug. We never really were coffee drinkers in my family, but tea and cocoa were always free flowing.

Discovering this old treasure brought back many warm memories, inspiring me to paint this simple 6" x 6" oil on stretched canvas. Looking at it brings a smile to my face!
