Hello again beautiful artists and happy soon-to-be Mother’s Day. This week I wanted to create a painting that celebrates mothers, and is also perfect for springtime. This teapot and teacup painting is a visual representation of how moms pour love into their children and help them bloom! Paint this with your mom, for your mom, or at any time of year.
