The Story Behind Your PaintingWhile beautiful bone china teacups may not be considered a patriotic expression, there are many stories about tea on the battlefront. In World War I, it was not uncommon for soldiers to take regular tea breaks. That tea flavored the water that was often transported in gas cans. Today, our soldiers based in the Middle East will drink hot chai tea with local military personnel. Wives, mothers and friends share their fears and stories with a cup in hand as they anxiously await the return of their loved ones. Tea for Three can have many meanings - for me it is about people being together, often in deep thought and discussion about the country we all love.
