Hello, Hiver friends and fellow art lovers! A blissful Sunday to everyone, I hope you are all doing well. I want to share the new coffee painting I finished today.

This coffee art highlighted two palm trees standing tall on a bayside, with foggy mountains in the distance and calm water reflecting the gloomy sky. Truly, this art form can create remarkable art, especially a dreamy tropical scene.

I used three painting brushes to complete this piece, which took me less than an hour. For those interested in trying this unique medium, follow the step-by-step basic methods below.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Watercolor Paper, sketching Paper, or stretched canvas
๐Ÿ‘‰ Pencil and Eraser

Basic Procedure:
โ€ข Outline or sketch your painting reference.
โ€ข Paint using a lighter background shade by creating a beautiful texture.
โ€ข On the middle ground, paint the first layer of the subject.
โ€ข The same procedure as the foreground.
โ€ข Once the first layer is completely dry, you can proceed to paint with a darker shade of coffee.
โ€ข Then add details to bring your painting to life. 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.
