100 teapots Set 3

The Path of Tea - お茶の道

When I began drawing my first set of 100 teapots in December 2005, I didn't have a goal of drawing, painting, and making 300 teapots. I still don't... I simply draw and paint each one as they come, as i enjoy tea. Each pot a fresh experience, and each time a new painting emerges even from the same old pot.

So, here is my growing 3rd set of 100 teapots, all drawn as I enjoy my daily pot of tea.

Let's see where this continuation of the practice takes me, with the help of the tea, the teapots, the steam, my hands, the place, the art supplies, sunlight, shadow, camera, and you who witness and are part of this practice.

Thank you, tea plants. Thank you, water. Thank you, fire. Thank you, oxygen. Thank you, friends and colors and sunshine ☼
