Prepare for the Day Ahead
watercolour & ink
I sketched my coffee pot or caffettiera for Illustration Friday. The word was prepare and the best way to prepare for the day is a nice coffee in the morning?
I start my day with coffee. Today however I started it with my three year old first. I learned a valuable lesson, no kids before coffee o'clock. Great sketch, thanks for sharing.

Cathy,
There is no better way (from my point of view) to start the day than with a cup of coffee and a sketch.
Very nice,

Oh yes, a nice cup of coffee and quiet sunshine. Beautiful colors.
Love how you handled the reflective surface of the espresso pot.
Sadly, I'm no longer able to drink coffee but I can handle the caffeine in tea. Love the coffee pot with the beautiful reflections.
Mmmmm, as an espresso/coffee lover, I'm loving this affectionate portrait!
Really good.
Congrats.

Hey! I have that same pot! I'll have to find it so I can sketch it too. Love your rendition.
My day never starts without coffee.
I can smell the fresh brewed coffee, Ahhhhh!! And yes, its the best way to kick start the day (Im also a tea drinker). Cute painting, say's it all : )

My husband brings me a fresh cup of brewed coffee! Great way to start the day.
I'm English so I start with a cup of tea. Lovely illo.
I go with the tea when I'm in the UK too!
Mmmm... I have one of those too ... and thanks to your beautiful drawing I will have a coffee now :)
beautiful coffee pot! I must agree:)
I wish I'd feel better soon so that I could be enjoying coffee again. =) Lovely pot!
