Hello, Hiver friends and art lovers! I hope you're all enjoying a wonderful day. I'm thrilled to unveil my latest creation: a captivating coffee painting I crafted today.
This piece exudes a profound sense of calm and tranquility. The muted tones and soft brushstrokes come together to form a serene seascape, elegantly framed by a branch from a tree. The interplay of light and shadow adds remarkable depth, enhancing the overall atmosphere of peace. The simplicity of the composition invites the viewer to explore the gentle waves and the expansive horizon with ease.
I used three types of painting brushes for this piece, and it took me an hour to finish it. For those who are interested in trying this unique medium, you can follow the step-by-step basic methods below.
Materials Needed:
š Watercolor Paper or sketching Paper
š Pencil and Eraser
š Coffee Powder
š 2 small cups ( lighter and darker shades)
š Ruler

Brushes:
š Flat Brush /small #10, 10/32 / 8.0mm

Note: Keep all the materials ready before you start painting.
Basic Procedure:
ā¢ Outline or sketch your painting reference.
ā¢ Paint using a lighter shade of the background by creating a beautiful texture.
ā¢ On the middle ground, paint the first layer of the subject.
ā¢ The same procedure with the foreground.
ā¢ Once the first layer is completely dry, you can proceed to paint with a darker shade of coffee.
ā¢ Then add details to come alive of your painting. I used a liner brush for the thin details.
Take note: In putting details, you cannot have sharp lines and shapes unless it is completely dry.
