Tea Goddess


Wow, it's been quite some time since my last post! Suffice to say this year has been a busy one. This is a piece I've done for Charlene Wang, a good friend of mine who for the past year has also been keeping busy with a great new venture in China that takes the best of the ancient art of fine tea making and social enterprise and brings you a delicious tea that also helps train and employ woman. http://tranquiltuesdays.com In addition to the beautiful teas that Tranquil Tuesdays provides she also supports the amazing local artists of Jingdezhen, the porcelin crafting capitol of China for the past 1000 years, by showcasing their fine tea ware. I had the pleasure of being her very first client as she provided custom tea tins as party favors for my wedding, the graphics of which I guest designed. These are also on her site to check out here: http://tranquiltuesdays.com/files/2010/11/Jon-and-Nanae-Tea-Tins.jpg. Anyway, I'm proud of her and looking forward to seeing her products stateside.
