SEC S11W6: Art with Coffee.

Greetings to everyone. Art work is becoming so interesting every day, I never knew that we can use only coffee to make an art, thanks to Columbia original community.

Art work the beauty of nature, it is an act of creating unimaginable things from the mind.

Have come to understand that every mistake in art work is a design.

Now to the contest topic, we are to use coffee to make an art of our choice, which means we can draw anything using just coffee and paper.

In my own contest I decided to draw a cup of spilled coffee.

Before I started my panting I make sure that all my materials were in place so as to help me complete my coffee panting. So the materials were

• Cardboard white paper
• Nescafe coffee
• panting Brush

After getting all my materials, I created a space that I will use for my painting by making sure that there was no water on the space, then I mixed my coffee in a small container and divided it into two part, one side was light and the other side was thick, then I use my panting Brush to moisten the coffee powder, then I waited for minute for the mixture to mix well

Before we go further Let me explain what I mean by thick coffee, to make a thick or dark coffee, the amount of water to be use should be very little, by so doing you will be able to get that dark color and if you are making the light color, add much water to the coffee, it will give you that light shade.

Please note that when you want to get the thick Color you don't just pour water like that into the coffee, what you need to do is to use your panting Brush and get water and add to your coffee little by little until you get what you want.

Since I was only using coffee without the use of pencil,
Firstly I make a sketch of a coffee cup and saucer with a tea spoon using light mixture of coffee,

When I was done with the sketching, I allow it to dry first then I proceed by Using the thick mixture to show the coffee inside the cup and some that spilled on the paper by showing all the features.

After doing this I let it dry first and after drying it didn't give me that color I really wanted, so I continue doing until the colors came out beautifully.

You can see my username on it my today's date is well written.

Before when I started it was not that interested that I had to condemn alot of paper without knowing that I was going to get it done even without the use of pencil or maker, so I had to carefully watch all the videos and I get to understand every bit of it.

In art work, I am just beginning to love it and I am beginning to understand the beauty involved in art work, it might seems useless when we start but when you are done with it, you will see that every bit in art has his own meaning. For my art of coffee spill I have use it as a decoration in my sitting room.

You can see my art work well seated on the wall in my sitting room.

I will love to invite my friends, @goodybest, @ngoenyi and @okere-blessing
