There’s something magical about the quiet moments that greet us at the start of each day. For me, those early hours—when sunlight spills across the kitchen table—are often where inspiration begins. “Lemon Tree and Tea” came from one of those mornings, when the simple beauty of a coffee cup, fresh fruit, and a favorite plant made me pause and smile.
I love how this painting feels at home in a New England kitchen—clean and bright, but with just enough color to bring energy to the morning. Many of my collectors tell me they want their homes to feel welcoming and timeless, with a few pops of personality that make the space their own. That’s exactly what I had in mind here: the fresh greens, sunny yellows, and playful blue give a cheerful lift while still blending with a neutral, coastal-inspired palette.
So often, the art we choose is what ties everything together. It’s the piece that adds warmth, meaning, and that personal connection to a home. And for many of my clients, working with a local artist is part of that story—they love knowing the hands and heart behind the work.
“Lemon Tree and Tea” is more than a still life; it’s a reminder to slow down and enjoy those everyday moments that make life feel full. Whether in a kitchen, dining room, or gathering space, it brings both comfort and a little spark of joy.
I hope this painting brings a sense of comfort and cheer to those who see it. Whether displayed in a kitchen, dining room, or any space that craves a bit of sunshine, it serves as a gentle reminder: there is joy to be found in the everyday.
If “Lemon Tree and Tea” speaks to you, I invite you to learn more about the piece or bring its warmth into your own home. The original painting is available, and prints can be made in a variety of sizes to suit your space. As always, each work comes signed and ready to hang, with a certificate of authenticity included.
