"Cafe Septieme" is part of my series of mixed-media paintings, "The Seattle I Remember." Each painting in this series depicts a beloved old Seattle gathering spot.
Cafe Septieme originally opened in Belltown in 1986, and moved to Broadway (Capitol Hill) in 1994. Cafe Septieme closed in 2009. The cafe was famous for its giant bowls of coffee and delicious fresh-baked bread.
I created this original painting in 2025 with beeswax, oil paint, graphite, and salvaged materials: old maps, antique book pages, and other found and salvaged collage elements.
The painting has a luminous quality and rich texture, as you can see layers of collage materials beneath many coats of delicious-smelling beeswax.
The painting is 10" wide x 8" tall, on a wooden panel with a wire across the back for easy hanging. The sides of the painting are exposed wood, lightly finished with linseed oil. It is signed, titled, and dated by me on the back.
