Painting With Coffee


I remember hearing some students say that they didn't have many art supplies at home. I wanted to create this video to demonstrate how a painting can be created by using cold coffee. This was my first try but I have heard of it being done. No brushes? Try using a Q-tip or cotton ball. I tried tea first because I do not drink coffee. The tea did not provide enough values for me so I tried using some coffee that we had in the kitchen. I learned a lot from this process and that is important. For example, I'll include more coffee grounds for darker values next time. So, if you try this at home with cold coffee let me know how it turned out! You can post your art on Artsonia or in our Google classroom. Take care, stay home, and stay safe. -Mr. B
