Hi Gerald! One of the other AW artists recently told me that she paints sometimes with coffee and with tea too! I tried it and I'm lousy at this type of painting! YOU, on the other hand, are so good!!!

Artist Reply: Ginger thank you! you can mix your thick paste of coffee with an acrylic glazing medium... OR if you paint with oil use a one drop of dishwashing liquid and 4 5 drops or water so you can dilute oil and mix with coffee... it will just take a little longer to cure fully... Thanks for your comments ! xxx
