Isn't It Coffee Time Painting

The artist thought about all the mornings of sitting over a cup of coffee, watching the swans and loons on the lake outside the window starting their morning routine as she prepared for her day of leaving for work. The ritual of hunching over that first cup of coffee and looking down into the cup as the coffee swirled after having stirred in the cream and sugar is represented by the swirl echo quilted inside the cup. Of course time plays a part in all of this as well – never enough time to just sit back and enjoy life, so a subdued image of a clock was quilted inside the coffee cup as well. The cup and coffee are hand appliquéd to the background. The quilting stitches are heirloom-quality and are the overall design of the piece. This piece is heavily quilted using finely detailed stitches that are only achieved after years of experience. The hand quilting surrounding the coffee cup gives this piece a finished look of being set on a tablecloth. This is truly a piece of art that will grace your walls for years to come. The back of the wall hanging is covered traditionally, with unbleached muslin and is signed and dated by the artist. Artwork is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artist.
