It's not every day that you're able to see some adorable animals taking shape through coffee bean art. The wonderful creations of Irina Nikitina do just that, as she puts together these whimsical pieces through the organic medium of coffee beans.
Nikitina creates an endearing feel to her work by having the eyes of the animals appear extremely large. She does this through the use of coffee cups that have carefully shaped foam within them. Whether you like cats, dogs or insects, Nikitina's coffee bean art has them all. The ability to think of such a concept speaks of a wildly playful imagination. The Russian photographer has displayed an uncanny ability to transcend her art form as this series is both superbly done and organically encapsulated.
