Picking coffee berries
The work depicts a woman collecting coffee, I wanted to convey the state of a sunny day, the warmth of nature and the process of work. Plunge into the idyll and harmony of nature and man. I wanted to show that the coffee harvest, which takes place according to all the rules and with care for the environment, as well as care and honest payment of plantation workers, looks like this. For work, I used bright and juicy colors that will help to transfer into the atmosphere of summer and warmth. The painting is made with acrylic, the background is made in watercolor technique, and already the foreground is worked out in more detail with dense strokes in order to keep the viewer's attention on the main characters of the painting. The green color in this picture brings harmony, tranquility and joy, the bright scarlet color of coffee berries reflects the unique taste of coffee. Enjoying a cup of hot coffee, you can feel the warmth of the sun, thanks to which the berries ripened, the care of the hands that collected the coffee and made it possible that, for example, a person being in gray rainy and dank weather, could feel the hot warming taste and magical aroma of coffee, which gives people cheerfulness and joy from the very beginning of a new day.
The painting participated in an exhibition in Berlin.
