Greetings, fellow art enthusiasts! I hope you are all doing well. Today, I am pleased to present my latest art, a compelling sunset scenery crafted using coffee as my medium. I invite you to take a close look and share your thoughts!

"Tranquil Twilight" is a striking painting that captures the serene beauty of dusk. Picture a landscape enveloped in soft, warm hues as the sun sets, casting long shadows and evoking a profound sense of calm and quietude.

I used three types of painting brushes for this piece and it took me an hour to finish it. For those who are interested in trying this unique medium, you can follow the basic methods below.

Basic Procedure:
ā€¢ Outline or sketch your painting reference.
ā€¢ Paint using a lighter shade of the background by creating a beautiful texture.
ā€¢ On the middle ground, paint the first layer of the subject.
ā€¢ The same procedure with the foreground.
ā€¢ Once the first layer is completely dry, you can proceed to paint with a darker shade of coffee.
ā€¢ Then add details to come alive of your painting. I used a liner brush for the thin details.

Take note: In putting details, you cannot have sharp lines and shapes unless it is completely dry.
