A perfect subject for any season—sweet, a little challenging, and so much fun: a chocolate ice popsicle painted entirely with coffee, no other paint needed!

This class is a great introduction for beginners to learn essential watercolor techniques, and a playful way for intermediate students to experiment further. Coffee is a truly stunning painting medium—natural, with gorgeous warm tones and fascinating textures as it dries. Just like ink or watercolor, it’s water-soluble, yet it has its own unique character.

In this quick and sweet class, you’ll learn step by step how to prepare your coffee paint with different coffee-to-water ratios, and then create a delicious illustration of a chocolate ice bar, complete with subtle reflections and finishing details.

If you fall in love with coffee painting, don’t miss my other class where we go further and paint a beautiful “Steaming Cup of Coffee” using only coffee and water on paper.

Thank you so much for exploring this class!
