Tea break
About the work
Description:
This painting depicts a serene moment of pause, where a young lady in a vibrant orange kimono gracefully pours tea into a delicate white cup. The folds of her kimono are adorned with subtle patterns that catch the soft light, complementing the warm tones of the scene. On the table before her, a single pink rose rests gently, its petals fresh and luminous, adding a touch of softness to the composition. The setting is intimate, with muted light filtering through, emphasizing the peaceful solitude of the moment.
Artist Statement:
This painting captures the beauty of stillness and ritual—a fleeting moment of tranquility in a busy day. The orange kimono, with its bright yet gentle hue, reflects the balance between energy and calmness, while the act of pouring tea embodies mindfulness and care. The pink rose, a symbol of grace and love, enhances the delicate harmony of the scene. Through this work, I hope to evoke a sense of introspection and remind viewers of the quiet elegance in life’s small, intentional acts.
