Coffee Mug - Original Oil Painting - Still Life Art - 6 inches

A vibrant morning glow in every sip.

"Coffee mug" is a luminous original oil painting that captures the peaceful, sun-drenched energy of a morning outdoors. Based on a beautiful reference photo by Rachel Petruccillo, the composition features a large, off-white mug filled with rich coffee. The mug’s surface is a masterclass in light, reflecting the colors of its environment through thick, confident strokes of soft pink, sunny yellow, and cool cyan.

In the background, lush green garden foliage meets a striking blue and white striped awning, creating a fresh, summer-like atmosphere that makes the subject pop. The mug casts a soft, expressive purple shadow across a light-colored tabletop, perfectly grounding the scene in warm, natural light.

Painted on a 15x15 cm (6x6 inch) handmade primed wood panel, this artwork showcases Alai’s signature impasto technique. The heavy application of oil paint gives the mug a sculptural quality and a wonderful tactile depth that catches the light from every angle. It is a charming, soulful addition to a kitchen, a breakfast nook, or a bright home office.

Why this original is a fresh pick:

• Radiant Color Theory: Instead of simple white, the mug is built from a spectrum of pastels to mimic the complex way sunlight interacts with ceramic surfaces.
• Summer Atmosphere: The combination of the striped awning and vibrant greenery evokes the feeling of a slow, warm morning on a patio.
• Handmade Quality: Painted on a custom-primed wood panel, ensuring a durable, high-quality surface for the thick, expressive brushwork.
