There was a mix of beginners and well seasoned painters. Clearly something new and inspirational awakened everyone. More proof for me that there is something about painting with coffee that puts in into a new Comfort Zone. Beginners are encouraged because they realize that they really can paint and those more advanced are surprised by the new possibilities that coffee brings to their palette.
