Tea Time at the Castle

“The placement of the almost life-sized tea pot against the vast panorama of the lake and mountains speaks to one of the Castle’s most appealing qualities, the refinements of living in this remote and rustic setting.  Just about everyone would love to spend a relaxed afternoon in this cozy little tea room.  I had been looking for an opportunity to include some silver in a painting since noticing the beauty of a tea service next to a window in my mother’s dining room several years ago.  The complex reflections there as well as in the china bring depth to the painting, and the challenge of creating the illusion of such shiny surfaces fascinated me.  It’s fun to find elements of the surrounding room recognizable in the reflections.  One small detail that had a tremendous impact was adding a reflection in the table surface in some of the openings seen through the tablecloth pattern.”
