31 Mars 2007, watercolor, 9" x 11"
Just about 2 months ago Claire had me over for Sunday petit dejeuner.
Her new grandson, Tado, had been babtised the day before and she asked me to paint a watercolor.
It's tradional to give guests at the babtism a little momento - This pale blue box of draggee / almond candies was the gift. I tried several different setups using C.'s blue and white china. In the end they looked too complicated, even with yellow bird.
While combing through some pictures yesterday I found these Bergdorf Xmas windows from 2005.
Full of blue and white china.
And manikins having a tea party.
I couldn't resist...showing you even if it is May.
OH MY...I cant beleive I am saying this but I LOVE all this blue and white today. The Pictures are fantastic. This from ME the Pink lady. ;-)
ReplyDeleteYou out did yourself today!

First peak at your painting, and I went "Oh, my goodness, Carol's done it again!". Take my breath away, that is. White and blue really becomes you. :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely post showcasing my favorite color combination in the kitchen! I'm writing this as I sip some Jardin bleu tea in a dainty blue chintz-design cup :-)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that blue painting. You are a clever girl. Blue and White is so restful you have done me the power of good today. Thanks

ReplyDeleteThis is so lovely. Beautiful. I love the shadow underneath the ribbon.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE painting blue and white things MERISI
ReplyDeleteOr should I say I love Cobalt Blue pale and will jump at any opportunity to use it.
I often sneak in on your "breakfasts". They are really lovely. Give me the lust to paint. So now I will let the laundry stand there, unfolded, and act on the spur of the moment...
ReplyDeleteOoooh--it's Grandma's "Blue Willow" pattern--a set my grandmother gave me, with a matching tablecloth...always makes me think of her when I see blue/white. And always love that combination. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteYour friend is going to be very pleased withher requested painting.
ReplyDeleteTado will never be blue, and certainly his cup will runneth over.
Perfect Carol!
