This coffee painting boldly showcases the rich browns and subtle variations of coffee to create a striking autumnal scene. The technique delivers a soft yet powerful ethereal quality to the falling leaves and the light streaming through the trees. The solitary bench commands attention, drawing the viewer into a moment of reflection amidst the vibrant changes of the season. The warm coffee tones exude a sense of coziness and nostalgia, making this piece essential for anyone who values the beauty of autumn and the innovative artistic possibilities of coffee as a medium.
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:
👉 Watercolor Paper or sketching Paper
👉 Pencil and Eraser
👉 Coffee Powder
👉 2 small cups ( lighter and darker shades)

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 by creating a beautiful texture.
• On the middle ground, paint the first layer of the subject.
• The same procedure with the foreground.
• 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 the thin details.
Take note: In putting details, you cannot have sharp lines and shapes unless it is completely dry.
