"Coffee or Tea?" Painting Finished

"Coffee or Tea?", oil on Raymar panel, 16"h x 20"w, ©Jill Banks 2012 was started as a demo at Katie's Coffee
I started this at the Katie's Coffee at the Old Brogue last month during my "Out & About" exhibit there. Yesterday, I had a tough time deciding what to paint ... and this was one of the candidates. But, it had to wait until today.

Since Katie's Coffee is a coffee shop in the morning ... where they also serve afternoon tea. So "Coffee or Tea?" seemed an apropos title.

See last month's post with a photo of the "Coffee or Tea?" painting's start.
