Tips
- You might want to do a light sketch first
- Like with watercolor, it might be a good idea to start light and build up to your dark values.
- Try using paper towel or sponges to create texture
- If you don't have a paint brush try q-tips and do a pointillist painting.
- Instant coffee can be mixed really thickly for darker values
- Try setting out several dishes with light, medium and dark tones of tea or coffee
