"Am I Blue?"
Teableau for 06/22/25

"Am I blue? Am I blue?
Ain't these tears
In these eyes telling you?

Am I blue? You'll be too
If your schemes like your dreams
Done fell through"
~ the Ray Charles version of the 1929 song by Harry Akst & Grant Clarke

Tea tableau with a variety of blue things: a soapstone giraffe, a miniscule, very delicate glass giraffe, an enameled brass bird, a graceful demitasse set, a polkadotted tea cozy, a large tin of Blueberry Green tea from Harney and Sons, a potholder, and a crocheted doily. The blue items are set on a white tea towel with blue and reddish flowers around the border. There is also a print of a woodcut painting of a vase of leaves, with one leaf prominently blue.

The enameled bird was a gift from a friend. The Portmeirion mug was a gift from a different friend. I love that they blend nicely in a teableau even though those particular people haven't met each other. Unconscious cooperation.

I made this while the Blondie song Heart of Glass" was stuck in my head. Powdered enamels combined with glass chunks and stringers on copper. Here's the link: etsy.com/listing/975712531/red #MastoArt #enamels #glass
