TANIA SE SITKAMER

SOLD

 This painting is as warm, peaceful and lively at the same time, just like my sister Tania herself. It speaks of everything she is, welcoming, calming, interesting and most of all beautiful! This is her sitting room, drenched by the late winter sun, just like she lightens everybody's lives around her!

My mom has a cup of tea every morning, from the finest China. She is a wise woman and it is only fitting that the cup should be right on top of a stack of books. I have always loved this chair as I have my mom!

LEMON REFLECTIONS

I spent the afternoon thrifting about, looking for interesting vases and such, and found this beautiful, classic copper bowl which screamed my name from underneath some odds and ends!
I love this more edgy composition that displays this bowl at its best!

MIDDAGSON by Cecilia Rosslee


SOLD

I guess what attracted me to this composition was the lazy sun that beckons one to pause for a moment and enjoy the serenity and peacefulness of the scene. Also the play between the warm terracotta pot and purple shadows...
