Put the second dimension into a cup, the art of coffee design that animators never want to miss.

You must have heard of the so-called "coffee flower pull"? Coffee pull generally refers to drawing patterns on coffee through some techniques, so that coffee drinkers can not only enjoy the delicacy of the coffee itself, but also enjoy it visually. Recently, Sugi, a Japanese lesbian who takes the flower as a hobby, has attracted attention for his use of colorful colors in small coffee cups and exquisite creation of many familiar ACG characters.

(note: the pictures and films quoted in this article are all works by Sugi.)

Sugi now lives in Japan and is interested in coffee flower creation.

In Twitter or Youtube, let more people see the creation of coffee lace through Instagram (free image sharing software).

Sugi is now happy to create coffee flowers at home as a hobby, and does not work in a coffee shop, but in fact, his profession has nothing to do with catering.

Last spring, Sugi first came into contact with the home Espresso (espresso) coffee maker. Then from then on, I tried to touch and try step by step, and began to teach myself through constant mistakes.

As one of the opportunities, Sugi saw the creator of "I flow Flowers" uploaded on Twitter and 2ch (@ latte_artist_jk ‎). After seeing an article that collected his works, he felt that his works not only had a considerable breadth, but also made readers enjoy them, so he also tried and started his interest.

In fact, in the beginning, Sugi can only make simple shapes and tricks. Probably from the beginning of the use of chocolate material, family and friends began to specify the content of the flower, thus began to try to draw cartoon characters.

The animation and game works of various countries are the creative themes of Sugi.

The following is the pattern of Winnie the Pooh drawn as an exercise. In addition, because chocolate is not used as the material, it is drawn directly with crema (milk foam).

Winnie the Pooh painted by ▲ Sugi for the first time is already very cute, while on the right is the recently painted Winnie the Pooh.

So far, Sugi has drawn nearly a thousand cups of anime coffee.

The most difficult problem for Sugi is to draw works he has never seen before, such as "Beautiful Girl Warriors", Studio Ghibli, Disney characters and "slam dunk" characters. But actually the finished product is perfect. Personally, his impressive creations are his favorite cartoons, "the wonderful Adventure of JOJO" and "the Slam Dunk Master".

Sugi can easily complete questions from friends and family, as well as topics raised by netizens on Twitter. If there is a theme that can not be completed, we will try our best to finish it. But because Sugi is lactose intolerant, it can only make things that can be given to friends and relatives. And I won't draw anything weird or frightening for children to see.

The complicated pattern of ▲ is no problem!

Sugi has also said that he wants to challenge 3D and color flower drawing, and he has already started the challenge when he has the idea of "wanting to try."

Among the coffee lace friends on Twitter, Sugi's favorite game works are based on the characters, famous paintings, ink painting styles of "Royal Knights", "Heart of the Kingdom", "Warriors against Dragons" and "Final Fantasy". As for the part of 3D flower drawing, Sugi believes that there are many unexplored possibilities in the future.

These beautiful colors are basically syrup used to make cocktails, and they are also mixed with materials such as black honey and chocolate. The materials used are all edible, which is relatively safe.

Sugi believes that flower pulling is the best way to relieve stress and allows drinkers to enjoy sight, smell and taste at the same time, as well as a great way to communicate.

In fact, the creation published in this article is only the tip of the iceberg of Sugi's many works. If you are interested in seeing more of his works, or about other people recommended by Sugi, you might as well go to his website to continue to enjoy it.
