Greetings Hiver friends, How are you there? Today I painted a coffee mug and this is created using coffee powder. Once you know already the methods for using this medium, the result looks attractive. I wish you can try this if you have time. Be reminded that using coffee is similar to watercolor. In my experience creating nature scenery through this medium is a bit easy. But this one which is a single subject can achieve also a gorgeous monochromatic effect.
You can choose your desired subject to paint, a subject that you are comfortable with.
In today's art journal, I will show you how to paint a basic process using coffee.
I used three types of painting brushes for this art. And it took me Thirty-five to finish this art.
Materials Needed:
👉 Watercolor Paper or sketching Paper
👉 Pencil and eraser
👉 Coffee Powder
👉 2 small cups ( lighter and darker shades)
👉 Ruler
👉 Clean Water
👉 Rag
👉 Paper napkin
Brushes:
👉 Flat Brush /small #10, 10/32 / 8.0mm
👉 Liner Brush #2 / 2/32" / 1.6mm
👉 Round brush
Note: Keep all the materials ready before you start painting.
Basic Procedure:
• Outline or sketch your painting reference.
• Paint using a lighter shade of the background. create beautiful texture.
• Paint the first layer of the subject.
• Once the first layer is completely dry, you can proceed to paint with a darker shade of coffee.
• Then add details to come alive of your painting. I used a liner brush for thin details.
Take note: In putting details, you cannot have a sharp line or a shape unless it is completely dry.
**Process:
This is the finished art.
