Bergdorf's Bleu et Blanc

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.
