What Else George?
“What Else George? ” was inspired by Nespresso and my love for coffee. I wanted to create a piece that represents Nespresso and what better than their patron, George Clooney.
In the commercials, they refer to Nespresso and say “What Else” and this was the main inspiration in creating this piece. I used acrylic paint with a monochrome colour scheme for the portrait and for contrast in the background I used different coloured recycled Nespresso capsules in a pattern to add to the theme.
Title: “What Else George?”
Dimensions: 910mm x 610mm

About the author, Mariska
Hi and welcome! My name is Mariska. I am originally from South Africa, but now call the world my home. I am an artist, designer, environmentalist, podcast host and speaker.
I started the Mama Earth Talk podcast in 2018 to share some of the things that I learned about just how easy it can be to reduce your impact on the environment. This then quickly grew into a forum that showcases the amazing things that many people are doing to make the planet better, and further into a source of hope and inspiration for many. A few of the amazing guests include Zero Waste Queen, Bea Johnson, Claude Silver, Kathryn Kellogg and zero waste chef Max La Manna.
If you do not already I urge you to follow me and my journey on social media (@designbymariska), and to refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle and rot your own waste using the handy tips I post!
