Growing up I took art lessons and the art teacher would let us use whatever medium we wanted. So over the course of about two years I practiced with oil, watercolor, acrylic, pencil, pen, and even airbrushing. The one medium I never tried was espresso. Yeah, espresso. Check out Karen Eland’s web site at Coffee-Art.com. She paints with espresso. It’s really interesting and she’s made some great renditions of famous paintings like the Mona Lisa.
