All the tea in China Painting by Kristine Ballard

Painting: Acrylic, Charcoal on Canvas.

Have you ever had a chat over a cuppa? Drinking tea is a great conversation starter. It crosses all cultures and class structures.
This artwork work was a creation from the ‘How do you take it?’ collection. Inspired by the Chinese tea ceremonies.
Artwork is a combination of acrylic paint and charcoal line. Composition is constructed from abstracted still life.

Style is ‘Fragmatism’. Invented by Kristine Ballard as a device to explore the merging of shape and space. A style where beauty is often camouflaged. Deconstructed shape and reconstructed colour drive Ballard’s development in this style.
