Art After My Own Heart

Tea cups, tea pots, tea bags, tea anything is my latest obsession. I know I've said it before.

So, when I came across Kimberly Shaw Graphics, I was immediately in love. Last week Kimberly commented on my Dancer at the Tea Party bag on Flickr. This, of course, prompted me to click back to see her photos. I am so glad I did.

Kimberly is a wonderful artist who has turned that art into an incredible business. Among other beautiful items sold in her store, you'll find her paintings on greeting cards that are sold with a tea bag inside. How perfect is that???

Below is a photo that is in Kimberly's Flickr stream... here she shows us a bit of how her paintings are created which I, as someone not blessed with this particular talent, find really fascinating.

Doesn't that make you want to give watercolors a go?

There are so many things that make me want to try watercolors! I too seem to lack that talent. The paintings are beautiful - thanks for sharing.

I can see why you're drawn to this artist's work. Lovely!
