Coffee Art is from Duluth, MN and this will be their third time at Norsk Høstfest, where they find the music, artisans, and visitors inspirational. This year, they will have Nordic inspired original paintings and prints available. Live painting, interactions, displays, answering questions, and photo opportunities (for people to interact with their art) will be major draws. Their work is so impressive that they’ve even done paintings for Starbucks, Jägermeister, Italian Coffee Association (traveled to Italy and various other places to display their artwork).
