Michael Breach, also known by his instagram handle @BaristArt[2][3], is an American[4] artist and entertainer. Widely credited as the pioneer of latte art[5], Breach manipulates latte foam to create portraits, from movie references to TV show characters to celebrities, as well as landscapes[6]. Breach has been called the “Michelangelo of milk” by ABC News[7] and the “DaVinci of coffee art” by Katie Couric[8].
Breach has over 99,000 instagram followers.[9] He and his latte art creations have also been featured on national television, including on Good Morning America[10], The Rachael Ray Show[11], Food Network[12], Access Hollywood[13], and The Kelly Clarkson Show[14].
Early life
Originally from Maryland[15], Breach was a creative child who demonstrated an interest in the arts from a young age, drawing comics "all the time".[16] He is a self-taught artist.[17]
Career
Breach first had the idea to take coffee art in a new direction while working as a barista at a New York City hotel.[18] Because few people ordered coffee during his late-night shift, he had time to experiment and develop his signature latte art style.[19]
In 2014, Breach left his day jobs as a barista to pursue coffee art full time.[20] Since then, he has made over 10,000 latte portraits, each of which takes three to five minutes to complete.[21] Breach creates latte art for trade shows, conferences, special events, and other private clients.[22] He has also contributed his latte art to public relation campaigns for companies such as Nestle[23], Dunkin'[24], Disney[25] and at events such as ComicCon[26] and South by Southwest[27]. Breach’s clients are located all over the world[28], and have included celebrities such as Joe Jonas and Amy Schumer[29]
Personal life
Breach lives in Los Angeles, California.[30]
