Painting with Coffee

My experiments in painting with coffee have positive reception. I have been using instant coffee applied with paintbrushes and makeup sponges. I like that these paintings are not clear-coated, so if they get wet, they're gone. Below are a few of those paintings.


The first one I ever tried is called "Morning Pain." This one hangs in my bathroom.






This is called "Where the Angels Wait to Join Us." It was given to the healer, Atanna.






This one is called "Eye on You."






This one is "Notasulga." It's the road going into Notasulga, Alabama, which I always found a little creepy. This one belongs to my boss at MTSU.






This one is called "Clouds Do Not Come in Straight Lines." It took two days to dry.




I'm not sure if I will continue trying out coffee as a painting material. I enjoy using it - and my paintings always smell yummy!
