Tea with Liam - Ceylon pt1

Published:
342 Views

Description

Sri Lanka, or Ceylon as it was once called, is one of the oldest and most productive tea regions in the world. Similar to the Darjeeling, the famous "Lion Brand" is at once a seal of quality and assurance, but also an easily identifiable logo standing in for tradition and value. To earn the "Lion Brand", a tea plantation has to apply for and pass government-approved, stringent criteria on production and quality. Sri Lanka remain one of the most respected tea exporting countries in the world. And the seal speaks for it. 

Technical details: 
1. Words hand-written with Dr. Ph. Martin's Bombay india ink with a C-5 and C-6 handwriting nib
2. Drawn with HB mechanical pencil and shaded with 2B & 3B graphite pencils.
3. Lined with Sakura Pigma Sensei 0.4cm.
4. Strathmore 300-series Mixed Media paper 5.5"x8.5" (14x21.6cm), 90lbs (190gsm)
5. Processing: PS4. (For cropping the image and contrast.)

I didn't know tea had a lion brand, I'm used to seeing the lion on eggs as a seal of approval. 
A lot of the teas we buy are handmade in the local town I might have to go quiz them on the plantations they buy the leaves from.
