Materials

Fineliner Pen and Coffee on Mixed Media Paper

Coffee Experiment came from an AP Drawing assignment where we had to use coffee as an art material. I used it like watercolor to create loose areas of shading, then added sharper fineliner lines on top. What interested me most was the difference between the loose coffee wash and the controlled pen marks. This was another way for me to mix a less controlled material with detailed drawing.
