Description
Teatime whispered the little crow. We will save time for you madam. Yes, tea is what we will have.Teatime whispered the withered trees. We will calm the breeze for you madam. Yes we will calm the wind for tea.
Teatime whipered the blurry skys. We will hold back the rain for you madam. Yes we will leave out the sun for tea.
Shhhhhh, whispered the madam . It is time for tea.
Well i had so so much fun on this picture. I jsut really dont know what to say, it was inspired by alot of James Christensen's work, and the flemish painters. Dear lord her dress took me forever. Reason for this picture just started out as wanting to draw that dress.......lol......yeh shallow. Well hope you all enjoy.

Hi Kurtis
My name is Michael. I am in Australia and I work in a souvenir manufacturing company. I do some designing of products and have been looking for a picture of a lady pouring tea, when I came across your "Tea Time" picture. I like the picture and would like your permission to make use of it for a commercial product in consideration of a commission.
Please contact me at: michael@souvenirsaustralia.com.au
Best Regards
Michael

Great job. I can't help it but your work reminds me of a local artist, she also likes this kind of theme.
Her posing as well as her facial expression are beautifully done and damn, I'd like to have such a tea set myself. XD
The applications of her dress remind me of an eye of an peacock - interesting effect :3
Such nice work has to be added to my favs

This is a brilliant painting! I absolutely love the little raven with the watch. Nice touch. The little poem about the drawing is sweet. Gorgeous gown! You are extremely talented! Love you gallery!

This has a great Brothers Grimm storybook feel. A little bit of Alice in Wonderland in there too, a very interesting combination. That dress is incredible! So many little details, and a very unique design. Tudor dresses present so much opportunity to go overboard with details. As a compulsive dress-painter I know how labor intensive this must have been.

"Tea time" this is a phrase we use between me and my sis and her friend when we getting ready to drink tea. but I have to say that it is a wonderful idea. and Im working on my first digital art painting, and it is interesting that I am going to be placing three black crows on a checked floor like this one, but all in black and white, weird I just had to say that, im charmed with this picture.

I can't stop adding your stuff to my favorites! *tries to restrain hand* it's just all so pretty ;_; If you keep this up, you could have a future career in art (I think you could go professional right now if you wanted to)
