Coffee Espresso

Coffee Espresso by Eliza Southwood. Espresso is an A3 sized piece depicting a solo rider time-trialling to victory ahead of the chasing bunch.
2017.

Eliza Southwood is an artist and illustrator who creates custom-produced works inspired by the professional cycling peloton using the finest dark-roasted coffee beans.

Each individual piece, painted on high-quality 250gsm ivory paper is signed and dated by the artist.

Southwood Says: “Cycling and coffee drinking are two pursuits that are inextricably linked. There’s something in the deep rich darkness of a well made espresso that sets the mind wandering to the dusty roads of Tuscany and the mountain finishes of the Grand Tours. My work is created in a swift series of brush strokes using the colour of coffee allied with the form of the cup to depict the kinetic energy of the peloton.”

Size: H:42 cm x W:59.5 cm
