Angel Sarkela and her coffee art partner Andy Saur discovered one truth: coffee beans can be used not only to make your favorite invigorating drink, but also to paint beautiful coffee pictures.
Andy and Angel have been painting coffee for several years, creating about a hundred original paintings. As a paint to create their drawings, the artists do not use any additives, only 100% pure coffee.
It all started one summer when Angela Sarkela and Andy Saur were planning their first show at a coffee shop in Minnesota. They wanted to make themselves known by presenting something unique and creative. And since their show was supposed to take place in a coffee shop, the young people decided that it would be appropriate to use coffee as a creative material. By brewing strong and thick coffee and adding a little water to it, the experimenters selected different shades of brown. Their experiment was crowned with success: all the paintings shown at the exhibition (and there were 30 of them) were bought.
Angela and Andy's art is quite affordable. Each coffee masterpiece costs an average of $ 40.00. The themes of their paintings are nature, birds, animals, rock musicians, movie characters.

Tea and coffee instead of paints. Paintings by Radislav Dzyuba
There is nothing better than a hot cup of tea or coffee on a frosty winter day. You can't argue with that, but we are not going to.
