One Drink, Four Seasons
Coffee, watercolour, black marker and ink
21 x 29.7 cm

An exploration of our relation to coffee during the four seasons, based on my own personal tastes as the weather changes but my love for coffee remains the same! Some drinks seem only good for hot weather or chilly evenings…but coffee in its various forms is always with me throughout the year in one form or another. Through a freckled coffee-drinker I have shown latte for winter, espresso for spring, iced coffee for summer and cappuccino for autumn. The casual sketches against a coffee splattered background remind me of the time I spend sketching people in coffeehouses.
