Art Journal: "Misty Lake and Mountains" | Coffee Painting ☕🖌️

Hello, Hiver friends and art enthusiasts! How are you there? I hope you are having a wonderful day.
This coffee painting beautifully conveys a sense of serene tranquility that resonates deeply. The soft, muted tones of brown and beige gently wrap around, creating a calm and nurturing atmosphere. The misty lake and distant mountains evoke a sense of depth and mystery, inviting us to lose ourselves in the moment. The birds gracefully soaring through the sky introduce a delicate touch of movement, reminding us of the beauty of change and flight amidst stillness. Overall, the painting radiates warmth and offers a space for peaceful contemplation, encouraging viewers to find solace and reflection in this inviting scene.
I used three types of painting brushes for this piece, and it took me an hour to finish it. For those who are interested in trying this unique medium, you can follow the step-by-step basic methods below.

Materials Needed:
👉 Watercolor Paper or sketching Paper
👉 Pencil and Eraser
👉 Coffee Powder
👉 2 small cups ( lighter and darker shades)
👉 Ruler
👉 Clean Water
👉 Rag
👉 Paper napkin or paper towel

Brushes:
👉 Flat Brush /small #10, 10/32 / 8.0mm
👉 Liner Brush #2 / 2/32" / 1.6mm
👉 Filbert brush

Note: Keep all the materials ready before you start painting.

Basic Procedure:
• Outline or sketch your painting reference.
• Paint using a lighter shade of the background by creating a beautiful texture.
• On the middle ground, paint the first layer of the subject.
• The same procedure with the foreground.
• Once the first layer is completely dry, you can proceed to paint with a darker shade of coffee.
• Then add details to come alive of your painting. I used a liner brush for the thin details.

Take note: In putting details, you cannot have sharp lines and shapes unless it is completely dry.
