Grounds for Dismissal
Today’s image is created entirely with freshly brewed espresso and discarded espresso coffee grounds on watercolor paper, and is the first painting of a new art movement to be called Espressoism, a movement of which I am at present the first and I believe only member! You are very welcome to join of course with your own coffee masterpieces, which I very much look forward to seeing.
Wishing you all a very happy #NationalCoffeeDay wherever you may be enjoying your morning, afternoon or evening cup of joe.
P.S. A great way to celebrate my 700th post – hard to believe!
Congrats on #700, Andrew!

This is dangerous territory, first you paint with coffee, next you start dyeing wool and fabric in it. I might be speaking from experience 🙂

Haha, I love espressoism!! Something tells me it could be big in Italy! And you could never get that TRUE colour! 😀

Many thanks Manja. Italian espressoism would definitely be bigger and bolder I suspect. 🙂

First of all congratulations on 700 posts (makes my pathetic less than 100 seem rather …. pathetic!) Expressoism is genius, pure and simple. I love it – well I would, wouldn’t I … wordy girlie that I am but I also absolutely love the final picture which somehow manages to evoke the best of Autumn for me and since we are past the Autumnal Equinox (I know that because it is my birthday) it is hugely and brilliantly appropriate!
