The Tea Is Still Cold

Acrylic on canvas.

24x24"

The Tea Is Still Cold reflects on nostalgia and the quiet loss of childhood imagination and comfort. A forgotten tea party waits for a guest who never arrives; the stuffed animals sit frozen in a scene once full of play, now abandoned. The extra plate faces the viewer, offering a place that can no longer be fully occupied. Though the toys remain, the warmth of play has faded, leaving behind a shared childhood memory that exists only in reflection, as if time has moved on without them.
