“The art of life lies in a constant readjustment to our surroundings.”
― Kakuzo Okakura, The Book of Tea
“Teacup with Gold Brocade” captures a moment of delicate stillness, inviting the viewer to pause and appreciate beauty in its simplest, most profound form.
A finely painted teacup and silver spoon rest softly on a cloth of warm, golden brocade, the patterns of the fabric catching the light in ways that suggest both luxury and calm. The golden silk offers a grounded warmth that contrasts with the cool, pristine elegance of the teacup, creating a harmonious balance that feels almost meditative.
The painting’s deeply shadowed background adds a touch of mystery, a quiet reminder of the unseen and unknown, inviting you to linger with its gentle beauty.
This intimate work is a reflection on finding moments of peace in the everyday, a celebration of how small, simple objects can bring us comfort and a sense of home – it is like a private retreat, drawing the viewer into a calm, timeless space.
"Teacup with Gold Brocade"
An Original Still Life Painting
Like most of my paintings, “Teacup with Gold Brocade” grew out of a moment of deep, quiet connection.

Something about what lay before me captured my attention so completely that time came to a standstill, the outside world fell away, and I was left fully absorbed in the beauty I saw.

That moment – which is almost like a daydream – becomes the inspiration; the source from which the painting flows.
