Description
This vibrant oil painting, aptly titled "Yes, but first the coffee," is a striking abstract representation that intertwines human forms with the ritual of coffee. The central focus of the piece is a person's face, fragmented and multifaceted, suggesting a moment of waking or the fragmented reality before the mind fully awakens, underscored by the necessity of coffee. The use of bold, contrasting colors-fiery oranges and reds against cool blues-captures the warmth of a fresh brew and the invigorating effect it has on the soul. The face itself is painted with a realistic touch amidst the abstract surroundings, highlighting the human connection to the daily ritual of drinking coffee. Drips and streaks of paint cascade down the canvas, much like coffee might stream into a cup, embodying the fluidity and essential nature of this morning ritual. These streams cross the boundaries of the face, symbolizing perhaps how the aroma and taste of coffee permeate our senses and consciousness. The painting's background is a mosaic of color and texture, evocative of the chaos of thoughts and the gradual ordering that comes with the first sip of coffee. It's an ode to the beloved beverage and its place in our daily lives, as well as a commentary on the fragmented state of morning consciousness that craves the grounding routine of a coffee break. This artwork speaks to coffee lovers, capturing the essence of its subject matter both visually and emotionally.

About the artist: Sergei Voichenko is a person whose studies began and ended at a children's art school (CHS). He considers himself a true amateur and, as an artist, develops easily, quickly, with pleasure and independently.

The process of creativity and constant search brings him pleasure. Sergei does not have one theme for drawing, and also does not have one style in his painting. He loves impressionism, expressionism and abstraction, as well as experimenting and having freedom of expression on canvas. Sergey enjoys ease in the process of drawing, although his work hardly seems easy in the end. He is inspired by many different artists, working in different styles and directions, whose work he sees on social networks. He doesn't consider them very famous, but each of them is interesting in their own way. In addition, Sergei finds inspiration in his life in its various manifestations.
