New Coffee Art Series

I’ve been working on a few new pieces of wall art made from coffee importer bags.  These things are so cool!  I recently picked up a few bags, but wasn’t sure exactly what I would do with them.  The visuals on the bag caught my eye and they just have this cool coffee shop vibe that I wanted to come up with a way to experience.  Then I ran across another piece of decorative wall art printed on burlap, the two ideas collided and here are my first two pieces…

Cut the frame to size around the bag. This one is 32 1/2″ x 24 1/8″.
Glued the corners of the frame
Corners are all reinforced with “V” nails to prevent splitting over time.
Because it’s a larger frame, all corners are reinforced with additional bracing. This also helps prevent bowing and twisting.
Here’s the first finished piece, “Costa Rica” 32 1/2″ x 24 1/8″. Stretched and mounted on wooden frame.

Here’s the 2nd piece, “Guatemala.” This piece is 25″ W x 34″ H, stretched & mounted on wooden frame.
