This 9x12 Acrylic on Canvas commissioned painting features a still life inspired by the popular, historic San Francisco watering hole - The Buena Vista Cafe. This cafe's specialty is an Irish Coffee. The painting was created from my customer's photographs, taken right there at the bar. He lives in Louisville, but visits San Francisco so often that is has become his second home, I think.
This little piece was so much fun to work on - the only problem is, it made me a little thirsty for a perfectly crafted Irish Coffee.
First 2 photographs below show the painting's progress. Last two show the completed piece.
