Tea and Comfort

I've redone the background because I was'nt overly thrilled with it.It felt like the biscuits were blending into the background.I've also tried out pastels for the first time, as a medium to enhance acrylics.Its given the edges a softer effect which I rather like.

  1. Your painting is superb and the cup is very successful. I really like the flowery background that you have added. Bravo for this test, I would never dare mixed pastel and acrylic.

  5. I like your new background and how the flowers tie in with the ones on the teacup. Very pretty! I'll join you for tea and biscuits (we call them cookies).
