"Coffee @ Yelo"

This painting looks to capture the essence of a leisurely afternoon. Two men sit comfortable in each other's company, under a leafy vine canopy at Yelo Trigg in Western Australia. Savoring their coffee, the midday sun casts dappled patterns of light and shadow across the scene, a cool retreat from the heat of the day.

Throughout the painting, recurring stripes weave a subtle repeat pattern. From the wooden awning overhead, the shadows on the wall, their striped shirts and the backs of the chairs. These lines connect across a tranquil moment of unhurried pace.

Yelo Coffee Shop no longer stands at Trigg. This painting helps to catch a moment in time and a memory of a treasured local community space. Camaraderie in the everyday, where the interplay of stripes and sunlight creates an atmosphere of warmth, relaxation, and timeless connection.
