Hi Steemians,
Just wanted to share why I thought of painting using coffee. Earlier this morning, I was in the office sitting and sipping a cup of coffee. Then I realized, what if I try to paint using coffee. Also, a lot of us have seen many artists paint using coffee. Since this is my first time, I would like to share my work in progress by using coffee.
First, I would like to give some insights why I drink coffee everyday.
Coffee helps start up your day. It is loaded with antioxidants and beneficial nutrients that can improve your health, that is why I like it so much.
Going back, I'm gonna show you how I made my coffee painting.
- Finished Product:

Let's get started, below are the materials I used:
- Carson 7" x 10'. 200 GSM
- 10 round - Nylon hair reeves - Ideal for water colors, gouache, Poster color, tempera and acrylics.
- Chinese brush (Pointed tip) - I borrowed it from my mom.
- Three small plastic containers for coffee powder.
- Coffee sachet - Nescafe
I started by creating the subject - Le Nu.
I drew this for art purposes, hopefully you'll like it.
- Done sketching and now lets proceed on the next steps.
- Just mix them using a spoon or paint brush.
Light Shade
Medium Dark
The Darkest
Tip: the thicker the consistency of the mixture the darker the shade will become.
- In painting, it is important that you start with the lightest shade and not the other way around.
- Then I proceed on coloring the subject. Light shading goes first.
- Also, you need a dry paintbrush or tissue to wipe off the residue when the coffee mixture dries on the paper.
- Then I'm almost done with the first coating:)
- I'm done with the first coating.
- Then, I Iet it dry for about 15 minutes then proceed on the second coating.
- After 15 minutes, I started again my second coating.
