Cups and Saucers (Alice in Wonderland project) as of Nov 1, 2024



Here is my painting as of November 1. This is for the "Alice in Wonderland" show at Porter Mill Studio. The quotation*  is from the Mad Hatter's Tea Party,  also the inspiration for the changing   color scheme for the cups and saucers.

At this point I was happy with the colors. My focus continued to be correcting mistakes and making shapes consistent. I made little white marks on the cups and saucers to help me correct errors and line things up. This was slow going, and I was feeling the time pressure because the plan was to turn this in by November 4th.  Like the Whte Rabbit, I didn't want to be late.

*Here is the quotation:
"Take some more tea," the March Hare said to Alice, very earnestly. "I've had nothing yet," Alice replied in an offended tone, so I can't take more." "You mean you can't take less," said the Hatter, "It's very easy to take more than nothing.""

To be continued. . . ..
