HACKS FOR PERFECT DRAWINGS
The delicious roasted smell of fresh coffee in the morning is what gets most of us through the day. But what if you could use this incredible brew to create works of art? I am talking about using coffee in painting techniques as the primary solution instead of the classical acrylic, oil, watercolor or tempera paint. You can use the solution following the same basic principles used in watercolor painting, a resourceful medium able to create texture, shadows, gradients and depth.
Here are the basic materials required for a coffee painting:
Instant coffee
Water
Watercolor paper
A set of brushes
Paper scotch
A color palette for mixing
Set all of your required instruments and materials on the working space and at your disposal. You can use instant coffee to create different intensities for your solution and add more water until you reach the optimum medium. Acquire a variety of brushes varying from the classical flat brush you are going to use to cover large surfaces faster to delicate slim pointy brushes for inserting precise details. Have a pencil and an eraser near for sketching your future creation and a role of scotch tape to secure the watercolor thick absorbent paper to prevent it from wrinkling!
You can take any size of paper, depending on what you are about to create, a glass of fresh clean water and a rather large flat brush. Set your working area somewhere in the sun for faster drying or if you must work indoors use a blow-drier to speed up the process. Coffee painting, similar to watercolor painting is all about adding more and more wet layers and having the patience to allow each layer to dry and the color to set.
Have fun with your coffee! ; )
