I am studying poetry at CSU in the Master of Fine Arts program ...

Your masterpiece got roasted, man
Contributed by: Tabitha Dial   on 9/23/2007

Australia's got loads of cool stuff: Ayer's Rock, kangaroos, steak and eggs for breakfast, and ... latte art competitions. Read this to learn more.

This photo, courtesy tonx at Flickr, may make you consider the transitory nature of art, nature, coffee ... According to an article at coffeegeek.com, "pouring latte art requires that you do two things at the same time. Pour the milk at a consistent and even rate AND shake the pitcher side to side with the even tempo of a metronome."

The results are beautiful -- creamy-mocha designs framed by the lid of a hot cup of coffee.

I'm not a coffee drinker, but I might try to make some art out of the chocolate milk I love to imbibe in.

I learned about latte art this morning because of this article about latte art from The Herald Sun.

Do you think these artists could draw anything neat in the foam head of my Guinness besides the obligatory shamrock?

I like this quirky story. It reminds me, though, of the transitory nature of some art--and of nature. The aspens are on my mind today, for some reason.

Hi Tabitha! I love getting lattes at Dazbog in Cherry Creek-there's always a heart in the foam; I love that. And it's tasty, too!
