You thought your barista was talented for putting hearts in the foam of your coffee? Well wait till we introduce Daniel Hatcher.
We first came across Daniel through mindless procrastinating on Instagram searching for rad photography and cool artworks. No not photo's of your breakfast at your local cafe. We stumbled across this rather unique page which was easy to see why it caught our eye...
My coffee cups came from my frustrations at work. I work for a fashion company and I design the graphics that go on the apparel. At times, I feel the work can get a little repetitive and frustrating so I started to come in early every morning and draw on my coffee cups whilst I was having breakfast before work starts that way I get to just draw whatever I wanted in my head at the time. I found this to be my sort of meditation before work as there was no brief, no time constraint and no client.
To be honest I didn't think my coffee cups would get much attention. I just started to put them up on Instagram because I didn't know what else to do with them. I Have about 50 of them under my desk and about another 50 at home. A couple of weeks in people started to message me to see if i could do coffee cup for there cafes .There really was no motivation other than I like coffee and drawing.
