Coffee Blues

Painting No. 86|10″ x 8″|Oil on Canvas Panel
Here is the second of the cup/bowl ones. The bowls were not happening so I added in a French Press with the coffee cup. The hardest thing about the painting was having to make an awesome pot of coffee and then sit there and not be able to drink it while I painted. It was luke-warm by the time I finished but still really good.

This was another one of those where I sat down and thought “what have I gotten myself into.” The idea of painting a french press is one thing but in application it’s very difficult. It’s a complicated little object but honestly I think I had a harder time with the mug.
