Coffee Pots 'in series' for APR

Ahh, the intoxicating allure

of brewing coffee.

It tickles your nostrils and then

dances in,

leaving you powerless

to resist.

Coffee is my heart starter 

in the mornings

and my goodnight kiss

in the evenings.

So, it is no wonder 

that I have chosen 

coffee pots 

for this weeks theme

of 'in series'

for the Artist's Playroom.

Coffee is for anyone.

Whether it is brewed on a stove 

in a tin pot

or served in cute 

coffee pots for a morning tea,

for breakfast in a hotel

 

or when you want 

to impress someone,

it never fails to bring people together.

Coffee does have a dark side though.

It comes in the form 

of an innocent looking

coffee bean, covered in chocolate.

I call them the Sirens

of the coffee world.

Coffee beans lure you in

and you have just one,

then another

and again and again,

until it strikes

and the nasty monster,

caffeine,

grabs you 

and you are a snivelling

hyped up mess on the floor.

But I digress,

coffee does that to you.

This weeks theme on APR is

in series and

I have painted 

a series of coffee pots in watercolour.

I know it was intended that the series be on

one sheet but being the grot that I am,

I would have smudged one pot

while trying to paint 

the other.

So better to be careful 

and cut each on it's own bit of paper.

If you don't like the set out at the top,

how about this one?

Okay, so a photographer, I'm not.

On looking at this photo,

I might darken the purple

around the spout

on the flower pot,

it seems to disappear too much.

Oh and sometimes a girl just needs to go shopping,

not for shoes or clothes but for this.

I couldn't afford them

but hey, sometimes 

a girls gotta do 

what a girls gotta do!!

I can't wait to play with them.

While I open this magical lid

and stare at the contents

why not head on over to 

Jenn's, Artist's Playground

and see what the other artists

have done.

I might just add on to Paint Party Friday too.
