Coffee Painting
Project Description:
Students will be using watercolor skills to try their hand at painting with coffee. Students will mix values, just like they would with paint, but will be using instant coffee instead. The trick is layering and knowing how much of the coffee to mix with water to get the desired shade.

***Students started this project by doing a quick practice (above). We talked about how to layer to achieve the different values.
GOALS:
-Mix the appropriate amounts of coffee to achieve the desired dark/light values.
-Layer the coffee to create different values.
-Looking for contrast between the darks/lights
-If students can create a 3D effect with their painting they will be working with advance skills.
