I was lucky enough to participate again this year in the Coffee Art Project and for this occasion, I wanted to create something special. Using coffee both as the theme and the medium for this illustration, I wanted to represent the moment of drinking a cup of coffee and its meaning.
Thoughts, decisions, emotions… go with every sip. Dreams, hope, plans… are implied in every taste. There is not a better feeling than getting lost in this moment. The creative process was long for this one and I tried to choose the perfect reference pictures to show these emotions. At the end I created my own reference picture from three different scenes.
The result was this illustration – “Coffee experience” – done with coffee and brown pencil on watercolor paper (50×70 cm). Hope you like it!

Absolutely amazing work ! The superimposed woman looking out the window , planning her day? daydreaming? reflecting on her surroundings ? leaves me wondering what she's thinking.
Thank you Nancy! I'll let you make the choice of what she is wondering about ;)

How exquisite and detailed! Have you noticed if different brand coffees or coffee strengths work differently than others? Lovely work
Thank you Emily! I work always with water-soluble coffee powder, exactly with the brand Nescafé. I tried to use coffee from a coffee machine and it didn't work as good. As far as the coffee is water-soluble I think it will work. No matter which brand
