The Mocha, 2023.
Watercolor on Paper, 6x8”
in an 8x10” Frame.

About This Painting:
Welcome to my drink of choice - the mocha. The toasty marshmallow on top and pink mug makes this my perfect cold day drink :) If it doesn’t taste like a hot melty milkshake, there isn’t enough cream and sugar in it for me, but you do you. Painting this torched marshmallow was almost as satisfying as this drink looks. The contrast of the foamy tans with that black crusty sugar just makes my eyeballs happy.

About the Coffee Date Collection:
This painting is part of a very special collaboration with my best friend, Maggie Van de Loo of Coffee With Maggie. Maggie is a talented creator and coffee connoisseur who invents new drink recipes all the time, including the ones featured in this collection. She is also one of my favorite people to have a coffee date with :)

This collection has been a long time coming! The very first coffee poster I ever created was for Maggie in 2018 and it featured all of her favorite LA-area coffee shop to-go cups. Since then, I’ve painted multiple custom coffee posters and we’ve received lots of requests to make prints, and here we are!

Thirsty?
Let Maggie guide you toward the perfect mocha! Folks who purchase an original artwork from the collection (like this piece!) will have the Coffee Date Digital Recipe Booklet sent to them for free ☻
