Scandinavian Coffee Art Print by Ingela Johansson
Coffee to Think captures that gentle moment when the world slows down just enough for you to hear your own thoughts.
It’s the pause before the day begins — when the first sip of coffee helps you gather clarity, reflect, and step into the morning with a softer, steadier mind.
The original artwork was painted with my grandmother’s boiled coffee from Löfbergs, a deep, nostalgic brew that creates warm earthy tones and expressive fluid lines. This type of coffee pigment is perfect for an artwork about reflection, stillness, and those first quiet ideas that arrive before the day becomes busy.
This piece is part of Ingela Johansson’s Coffee Collection, sparked by an accidental dip of the brush into a coffee cup in Singapore in 2014. Since then, she has painted with espresso, cold brew, instant coffee, grounds and boiled coffee — exploring how each type of coffee brings its own emotional tone and texture.
Coffee to Think is a tribute to the small rituals that help us breathe, pause, and reconnect.
