Home of The Velvet Foam
This wonderful title is not from me. It is from a Spanish artist living in the U.S.A., Gabi Campanario (as he says himself “drawing life around Seattle.”). I met him on the net not such a long time ago and was at once quite charmed by his sketches and the themes he chooses. Recently I saw the drawing with that great title, and felt very happy that he also dedicates his art to coffee. I had only one wish: to share it with my friends from Cafe Crem!
I asked him if he would allow me to publish his coffee “cup” here, and he kindly accepted. I am extremely thankful to him for his spontaneous and uncomplicated way of participating. If I understood him well, he has some other coffee art, and if he agrees, I will gradually publish here a series of his coffee cups.
But for now, my dear friends from Cafe Crem, please welcome our new artist friend out there in Seattle and enjoy this velvet foam, Have a look too at his blog entry related to this drawing, it is very interesting!

This is a great piece of work Gabi! I understand Seattle is pretty famous for its coffee – so I’ve no doubt it’s a great town in which to enjoy a cup. I didn’t get that far up the West Coast on the trips I’ve made to the States, but who knows, one day! In the words of Jonathan Richman (I think) “Viva Seattle-Tacoma”!
A very cool drawing – thanks for taking the trouble to share it.
Very nice. I’m glad he let you share it as well.
Welcome in the Coffee Cream cafe, Gabi! I’ve looked at some of your drawings made on buses… Man, how do you do that? I never could draw a straight drawing in a bus!
