Art Journal: Haze Over The Lake Coffee Painting ☕🖌️

Hello, art enthusiasts! I hope everyone is doing well. I'm thrilled to share my newest artwork made of coffee.
The "Haze over the Lake" painting is a captivating portrayal of a mystical scene where a gentle haze envelops the tranquil waters, creating a dreamlike and otherworldly ambiance. This artwork captures the interaction of light, water, and mist, evoking a feeling of calmness and enigma. It also showcases the delicate balance between shadow and light, illusion and reality, creating engaging and contemplative moments for the viewer.

I used three types of painting brushes for this art. It took me an hour to finish this piece. For those who want to try to paint using this unique medium, you can follow the 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.
