Beautiful artists paint Jay Chou with coffee

According to the Daily Mail of February 25, a young Chinese female artist recently created a portrait of the famous Taiwanese singer Jay Chou using a coffee cup as a pen and coffee as a paint. The portrait is vivid, and the artistic temperament of "Jay Chou" is just right.

The artist, Kang Yi, 25, is from Malaysia and currently works for a company in Shanghai. She majored in architecture when she was in college, and painting was just her hobby.

According to Kang Yi, she printed the masterpiece bit by bit with the coffee spilled from the bottom of the coffee mug. The creative process took 12 hours and experienced several failures. "Coffee is a kind of 'pigment' that is difficult to grasp. Sometimes when there is too much water in the coffee, the round coffee stain cannot be formed at all, and the whole picture will burn off."

So how did she come up with the idea of creating a portrait of Jay Chou in this way? It turned out that she was inspired by Jay Chou's song "unspeakable Secrets" (hereinafter referred to as "Secrets"). "Secret is one of my favorite songs. At the beginning of the song, the song sang 'cold coffee left the coaster', so I thought of using coffee as my paint, while painting with coffee cups echoed the autumn leaves and fragments mentioned at the end of the song. many incomplete cup imprints in the painting are like fallen leaves. "

In fact, this is not the first time Kang Yi has painted in this "untraditional" way. She has also used sunflower seeds, chili sauce and basketball. At the beginning of this year, she created a portrait of Yao Ming with basketball dipped in paint on the streets of Shanghai and attracted wide attention.
