Coffee Cup--Creative Tuesday

Here is a painting I made with water mixable oil paints.  It's more of a painted sketch...  I suppose I could cut the painting into two, since it is divided in the middle.

I had started it awhile ago and then Hot Toast and Jam had coffee as a theme for their Creative Tuesdays this week.  So here is the finished painting.





Also, this is linked to Dina and Samantha's Out of the Journal challenge.
These are the water mixable oils I used:

What rich colors...and you can sure feel the depth in the cups. What a nice sketch and certainly works for the "coffee" theme.

I agree with the other comments - your style and colour usage is very nice. Feels warm like a nice cup of coffee :-)

I have been wanting to use that kind of oils. I never did many oils, the same reason many others don't, but now there is no one around to mess with my drying time I just might try them. Great show of color.

Mmmm, is the only thing I needed to add the Creative Tuesday in the blog post title?

Love the colors and the smooshy backgrounds. I definitely would leave it as one painting - it's quite strong that way.
