It has been a year now since I started painting with Coffee.

The subjects I chose for my Coffee Paintings where always characters, people, trends and public figures that inspire me and that I find interesting.

Being a huge fan of Ellen (me and the rest of the world :P), she was one of my first Coffee Portraits I painted last March. But then I found out she doesn’t drink coffee ! OMG the horror ! :P

So naturally, I painted her with tea. Why not, right ?

Painted using a combination of : English Tea, Earl Grey, Verbena Herbal Tea and Rose buds on Handmade Paper. Total prep and painting time: 6 hours.
