Coffee ThymeAffiche encadrée

Coffee Thyme carries the loose, stained look of a Sam Gilliam colour field, with soft washes of brown and warm earth tones spread across the surface. From a doorway the colour areas merge into one calm block. Standing close, the edges where the paint thins and gathers become clear.

The framed poster is a print held in a wooden frame with a back panel behind it. It arrives put together, so you only need to decide where it goes. The matte finish keeps the browns even under a lamp.

In the kitchen, placed on the wall beside a tall cupboard, the warm tones sit well with wood and tile. You notice the pale gaps in the paint while waiting for the kettle.
