Here’s an interesting collection of influential and controversial figures throughout history on milk bottles. The bottles were designed by a graphic designer based out of Montevideo, Uruguay who goes under the pseudonym Luliexperiment. You can check out more of his artwork at his blog. In this instance, milk is the canvas for the artwork.

Nothing beats simplicity. And simplicity is exactly what Albert Exergian (Art direction for print and RGB media) accomplished. These posters are just a a taste of Exergian’s re-imagining of some popular TV shows. He stripped these shows down to their bare essentials and created contemporary poster art. I chose to share the following three if only because the central images have to do with the art of drink. Be sure to check out the rest of the posters over at Exergian.com and at the Exergian Blog.

Karen Eland likes coffee. Okay, Karen Eland really likes coffee. So much so that she has made a name for herself as an artist who paints in espresso. The Oregon based artist has been busy recreating some of history’s most famous paintings, including the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper. You can even find an 8 foot mural of The Last Supper hanging in one of Karen’s favorite coffee shop, Nordaggios Coffee in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Different print sizes are available and prices vary based on print size.

“Coffee art is a truly unique art form. It requires a thoughtful and delicate touch. Capturing the depth of these classic works is only possible through a slow and sophisticated process of building layers upon layers of espresso. I first thought of the idea of painting with coffee while watching rich, red-brown espresso pouring perfectly into my cup. As I enjoyed my hot latte, it occured to me that perhaps I could take my passion for coffee to a deeper level. So I dipped my brush and began painting, and to my delight, it worked beautifully.”

The Visual Aid Shop is a neat little poster site that features imagery that is meant to be useful. You wont find abstract art here. Instead, think of these as visual aid posters for THE most important things in life. Like how to use chopsticks.

While perusing the Visual Aid Shop I noticed a bunch of drink related posters. I’ve included a few of my favorites below. The posters are available in a variety of sizes up to 60 x 40 inches (1524 x 106 mm) and range in price from $8 to $68. All posters are unmounted on 190gsm Silk paper.
