Cheeming Boey creates small pieces of art by sketching on foam coffee cups! His friends told him they would never sell, but that was before Marion Meyer saw them.
“I personally liked them,” says the former president of the Laguna Beach Art Walk. “And that's how I select artists. When I connect to the energy and passion someone creates in their art, that's when I like it.”
Meyer invited Boey to display his cups at her gallery during the monthly Art Walk. They sell for $120 to $220.
