Forever 'Teacups n Teapots'


I am forever loving teacups and teapots, hence painting them too. Here is a tall slim cupboard (shown here, the door only) with various teacups design and a 3-leaf screen with portmerion inspired designs.

Vanity Cupboard


Things that young girls (or older ones for that matter, like yours truly) love : handbags, shoes, hats and lacey gloves, perfume and the whole range of toilettries, lipstick all all other cosmetic, vanity mirror etc etc. Woman, vanity is thy name....

And here they all are, painted on a cupboard suitable for girls room. It is for a customer. My Ayesha asked me why don't I paint them one. Well, maybe I should. Must find the time to paint things for myself!
