Can you guess what my favorite color to work with is?
Take a guess, but tune in later for the answer.

    Lovely work as usual. An English tea party at school? How fun. I'm going to take a guess at your favorite color to paint with, is it blue? :o)

    A ladybug's tea! This just inspires images of daintiness, as you have so wonderfully illustrated!
    Your favorite color? I'm going to think "pink!" :o)

    Love your lady bug tea. English tea hey? Just normal tea for me living in the UK then. Lol. Although I don't own such a pretty tea set. I'd like to though.

    Now you're favourite colour....mmmm....real hard but I pretty sure it must be black. No? Oh, I shall have to think a bit harder ;-)....A wild guess then: pink! Probably a long shot but that's my guess ;-)

    Another beautiful painting with adorable details, Heather!

    Your work is always so charming- I love how you really caught the delicacy of fine china and the sweetness of a quiet cuppa- whether it be tea or in my case coffee! Lovely work as always!
    Happy PPF,

    On a hot summer's day when you're feeling a bit peckish and in need of a sit down, there's not much beats a proper cream tea (cornish clotted cream naturally, strawberry jam and homemade scones with the tea blend of your choice - I'm rather fond of Earl Grey when it's hot).

    Delightful piece that made me rather hungry...
