My Scottish Teacup – Nona Hyytinen Portraits https://nonahyytinen.com Sat, 25 Sep 2010 21:39:17 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.9.3 My Scottish Teacup with Coffee https://nonahyytinen.com/my-scottish-teacup-with-coffee-2/ Mon, 14 Apr 2008 22:01:00 +0000 http://nonahyytinen.com/wp/my-scottish-teacup-with-coffee-2 Here is a Daily Painting I did to refresh my eye. I am having difficulties with a larger painting of one of my favorite models reading, so to refocus on a different project for a while does me good, especially when I’m painting from life instead of a photograph. Again, the pleasant associations of china and tea lift my spirits. Afterward I go out to walk around the Pendarvis Arboretum here in Mineral Point, taking our dogs, Saxon (Yellow Lab) and Pippin (Pug) for a romp. Mineral Point is a lovely old town originally settled by Cornish Miners and built of the local limestone. It seams perfect to come back for hot, Yorkshire Tea and a tea biscuit from the local grocer’s. 5×7 on canvas, Sold
