Following the artist Marcel Duchamp who painted Mona Lisa with a beard, the American artist Karen Eland also used coffee to create a kind of Mocha Lisa, the funny but truly creative art caused strong reaction. If you think the Mocha Lisa’s bright spot lies in mocha coffee in Mona Lisa’s hand, you would be wrong, in fact, this picture is completely painted with coffee. Karen spent nearly seven months painting the Mocha Lisa. She uses fresh-baked coffee to mix with water as the paint, painting different shades of shadow. Mocha Lisa is not the first time that Karen painted with coffee, she has also produced a number of «coffee version» world famous paintings, including the engagement portrait of Prince William and Kate; as her coffee art has been sold at 15,000 dollars, she is confident in the future market. Karen Eland said she has been a coffee lover, her using coffee as a pigment in painting was inspired by an experience in 1998. At that time she was creating watercolour in a coffee shop cup in Tulsa, Oklahoma City. Different shades of the colour of coffee excited her, and so coffee art was born.
