"Café Sketches"
Yep, these were painted with coffee.
When sitting in a café, all you need to sketch is good paper, a pencil, a glass of water, a double shot espresso and a few brushes.
The girl portrait was done at "Moonbean" in Toronto in 2022; the other one at "Café Madame" in Paris in 2017.

It's so annoying... I post watercolors like this one in relevant art groups on social media, and everytime, just because it's figure, they freak out and take it down.
We're in 2025 for crying outloud!
