"Coffee is an intriguing, attractive, appealing and creative medium to shape art. It is quite a successful experiment to use coffee to shape up old, aged or ruined subjects. Coffee painting produces perpetual sheen and aroma. The uniqueness achieved by coffee painting cannot be delivered by any other medium," declares Mira. She bases this on her experience with coffee painting. While discussing her styles, she says, "Coffee can be used similar to watercolor."
“在艺术创作中，咖啡是一种有趣、迷人、具有吸引力和创造力的材料。用咖啡来塑造陈旧、古老或者受损的物件是一项相当成功的尝试。咖啡绘画的光泽和香气是永久的。这一特性是其他任何材料都无法实现的。”米拉说。她是基于自己的咖啡绘画经验来谈的。在讨论她的风格时，她说：“咖啡与水彩颜料的用法类似。”
Painting with other mediums is certainly not new. A few other experiments have been done with tea, spices, or bananas by various artists. But none compares with an art work smelling of the light aroma of coffee. Mira also explains their artistic usage of clay with coffee painting. "In a few of our paintings, we used a clay base to give an embossed look, which adds more depth to the chosen theme." Her painting Coliseum is a nice example of using coffee as the best medium to construct such a historical building on canvas.
用其他东西来画画当然不是什么新鲜事。其他艺术家还用茶叶、香料或香蕉进行了实践。但是没有一种材料可以与散发着淡淡的咖啡清香的绘画相媲美。米拉还解释了她们在咖啡绘画中对黏土的使用。“在我们的几幅画中，我们用黏土作底使作品看起来有凸起感，这为作品的主题增加了深度。”她的画作《古罗马圆形剧场》就是一个很好的例子，它以咖啡作为最好的媒介，在油画布上建造了这一历史建筑。
