To prove her point she recalls taking an art class at around 5, and being asked by the teacher to draw a figure. “He asked me to draw a figure, and put me in front of an easel with a large pad of newsprint, I drew a figure that took up a tiny corner,” she says. “He asked me to try again, bigger, and I drew something only slightly bigger- after a few attempts he told my mother he couldn’t really teach me.”

Years later and with almost half a million followers online, she proved there’s an audience for even the smallest of paintings. “I think I’m incredibly fortunate, because, within the last 15 years that I’ve been working as a professional artist, the art world has started to emerge from what I always thought of as a sort of dark age,” she says. “I think for a lot of the 20th century the mainstream art world has been dominated by art that is very commercial, conceptually heavy-handed and visually bland.”

Her miniatures tend to focus on the natural world, but there are a couple of human figures here and there. Scroll down and take a look.

Today, Silvious continues to illustrate her day-to-day life through her paintings. In addition to her regular tea drinking and drawing, she created several tea bag art collections while travelling. She launched the 26 Days of Tea in Japan in 2016, showcasing the painted tea bags made from watercolor, ink, gouache, and origami paper, inspired by her art residency in Itoshima, Japan. Her latest collection, 26 Days of Tea in France features French cuisine and gardens, and was exhibited at LM Studio in Hyères, at the southern tip of France’s illustrious Côte d’Azur region.
