mixed media 

What can I do with this leftover coffee?  Can I use it to dye fabric or paper?  Can I paint or draw with it?  Why not?  Thinking about what I can use with what would otherwise be considered as trash is one of my favorite methods of creating mixed media art.  There is no rhyme or reason to this method,  I just love to try things just to see what happens. 

I mean, it was going in the trash or down the drain anyway, right?
