The Confessions of a Caffeine Junkie

Coffee and Art, whatever kind of art that it might be, whatever the medium, the two seem to go hand in hand. So, it seemed only fitting that somebody should dedicate a book to the people that make it all happen. The artist, the music makers, the song writers, the beatniks, and to the bohemians that just refuse to die. This one's for you. Now, more than ever before, coffee seems to be a popular subject and one just about anybody can relate to. The camaraderie in the warm coffee houses, the comfort from the steaming cup and the aromas found there seem to bring to the soul a sense of relief from life's challenging and often, lonely road, the same road poets and artists speak of. Over a cup of coffee, people of all nations share in the beauty of their collective dreams. We etch them out with inks, paints and charcoals. With words and images over parchment we make art, colliding in a good place, and we do it for peace.
