Description:
Handmade #2 is a tribute to the master cigar rollers of Ybor City—an intimate, close-up portrayal focusing on the precision, rhythm, and storytelling found in their hands. Every layer in this piece honors Tampa’s deep cigar heritage and the legacy of craftsmanship passed from generation to generation.
What makes this artwork truly unique is the medium: MA infused real Cuban espresso coffee directly into the painting, giving the surface warm tones, organic textures, and an aroma-laced depth that can only come from the culture that inspired it.
This piece is not just painted.
It’s brewed, built, and lived.
