Glory of the First Cup of the Morning

I love the smell of coffee brewing. The aroma gives me the good feeling that all well be well and the day will be great. What a great experience to paint. Hence, Glory of the First Cup, a 24" x 24" piece with gold leaf, paint skins, collage, stencils and gel transfers.

Sorry, this was shot with my iphone as my wonderful photographer (Clare Lighton) is in Berlin for a couple weeks.
