This image manipulation shows a headless woman, symbolising how she feels in the early morning before she has had her first cup of coffee. The head has been cropped away to express the familiar state of morning numbness, as if her head is still asleep in bed. This image is a humorous and recognisable representation of the morning ritual for many of us.
Many people will be able to identify with this feeling of being awake but not quite fit and yourself yet. It is a playful nod to the challenge of starting up in the morning and the need for a hefty dose of coffee to get back to life. While it would be practical to be a morning person, some of us just need a little help to start the day off right.
The setting of the kitchen and the knitted jumper add to the homely feel of the picture. The neat countertop offers a sense of order, while the surreal element enhances the reality of the morning feeling. This unique art picture brings both humour and recognition, and is a perfect addition for anyone who appreciates their morning coffee and wants to celebrate the sometimes erratic start to the day.
Hang this image in your kitchen, office or any place where you want to raise a smile and remind yourself that it's okay to get off to a bit of a slow start in the morning. This artwork offers not only visual pleasure, but also a daily reminder of the power of a good cup of coffee.
