Still life- copper teapot



Hi there, Here is another still life I painted recently. I purchased this sweet little copper teapot at a antique store not too far from here. Not quite sure you would consider this gentleman a dealer as much as you would a "hoarder", lol. It is packed full of treasures and I don't think he cares of he sells them or not. This is oil on a 8 x 10 stretched canvas.

August is getting to be a busy month. Several deadlines for submissions, a paint out and a wonderful event where I was invited to display and demo. Have a few commissions in the works too. If you are interested in a commission contact me for pricing. I paint pet portraits or house commissions.

Cute little teapot and painting. He must not be a hoarder if he sold it.

True Bill and he did come down a tiny little bit, lol. It was so filthy that I had to get it home and scrub it down to see what I had. Love my little treasure though.

You've caught such beautiful light in both these still lifes. That copper kettle positively glows.

Thank you very much Liz. I have struggled over the years with putting too much white in my paintings and graying them down. I try to use a light touch now with white. "Bad white!" lol

The teapot series is delightful, Barbara! I only wish I can lend you all my little blue vases to include!

Hi Marie, I would love to include your blue and whites vases. I think most everyone likes blue and white, don't you? So happy you like these.
