Thanks for writing, Ouu. My still life is a combination of abstraction and a very ambiguous narrative--so use your imagination and let me know what you come up with!
This persons needs a break (tea time) from their life which is a bit sour at the moment (lemons) but they are unable to do so (hence the lack of milk). They also need to communicate their feeling (letter) but they are hiding it/keeping it to themselve or avoiding it (being covered by sheet thing). Was I close?

My visual journal is inspired by what I see every day: the weather on my hill in northern Vermont, what’s growing in my garden, a curio brought back from travels or an ordinary object from the kitchen shelf made special by careful looking. "Journal" paintings are fast, improvised daily entries, a chance to experiment with new approaches and pay attention to the here-and-now. When I’m traveling, quickly recorded impressions are posted from Paris, Provence, Spain, Maine and anywhere else I’ll find myself this year. My large studio compositions take time, planning, refining of the original inspiration. I'll also be sharing that different kind of creative process with you here on "A Painter's Year".

Really curious as to what could be consumed with the above ingredients...
I love the realistic simplicity of this. The teabag especially, it's beautiful.

Narrative as in story...? Hmm.
