Sunday Sketches: Teapot Delight

If you were to visit our cozy home, you would find quite the collection of tea pots (...and tea cups!) Uh huh. This piece of art reflects one of the many that grace the cabinets of our kitchen and is usually the one we use to serve our guests that perfect cuppa when enjoying an afternoon tea of raising scones and Mr. Toast's homemade lemon shortbread.

As you take a look at the few process photos above, you'll see in the last picture what looks like a simple sketch of the teapot and yummy cookies. If you take a look closer, you'll discover that the text, "Yorkshire Tea" and various spots on the teapot are actually white - this is where I used a pastel pencil, which allowed me to create the 'white space' without the mess that wax or masking produces. If you're curious about this process, hang tight, as I'm currently developing a video tutorial to share this. In fact, I have lots of surprises and creative goodies coming up over the summer and look forward to sharing these with you.

Here's to a wonderful weekend for each of you. Happy Sunday Sketches!
