The Story

December 16th, I have rent to pay. I should be getting a check from that court case I more or less won, but the defendant is dragging their feet. The plus side is that they might have to pay me an extra 1.2K+ because of the negligence, but the downside is that my rent is due in a couple of weeks.

I go Lakewood, hoping to sneak my way into another art market. Unfortunately they and the other art market I was hoping to join are booked. A third market is open, but I can't be there for a full week, as my endometriosis, has other plans. I'm stuck. Well, I figure. I might as well celebrate my birthday. I decide to go have the best meal I can likely afford. I go back to Vinca in Broomfield.

I get there around 5pm and the place is empty. Slowly through out the evening more patrons drop in. I'm at the bar, as per usual and talk to the owner and waitstaff. To my delight, they have seen the French 75 drawing, I drew February that year.

It's my birthday, so I decide to just draw something for fun--a rarity these days between commissions and running a business on a tight budget. I look through the menu and order an old favorite: the Cosmopolitan.

I had been planning on drawing a cosmo drawing for awhile. The original plan some months ago was to make a huge picture feature the three cities that collaborated to make the drink, New York, San Francisco, and Miami. However life got in the way, and since it's my birthday, I'm feeling a little lazy. Instead, I opt to do a smaller picture. I oscillated on what style to use, but decide that Art Deco, not Art Nouveau, is the perfect style for this picture. So just in time for the Holidays, I complete this vector art: the Vinca Cosmopolitan.

Experiences define life.
What would you say are the special places you visited? Of course, all the wonders that mother nature created and the architecture of mankind.

Certainly, there are such enumerable places worldwide, but sometimes, you can also count on these places as restaurants and the experience you had there.

We traveled across Europe, visited Michelin-star restaurants, popular local restaurants, and excellent no-name osterias in the middle of nowhere. All these places are so different, and yet all left a deep impression and great memories.

But why did they make us feel so well, why was the experience so unique? We started asking ourselves.The reasons varied, and sometimes it is the perfect combination of the food, sometimes the extraordinary service & willingness, sometimes the environment—so many different attributes.

What connected all these places? It was the happy faces of the people, hearing people laugh, and the overall positive vibe & energy.

…and then one day the crazy idea hit our minds…could we do it too? Can we bring people to laughter, feel happy, and relax?

So here we are, trying to create a place where YOU will simply feel “happy”. A place, where you want to have your first date, big and small celebrations, toasts with your friends, close deals, lingering afternoons, lasting memories, or just spontaneous nightcaps!

We hope YOU will enjoy it!

Chin Chin!

P.S. A few words about wine. We at Vinca, love wine because it is one of the last true things in this digital world filled with apps, games, and 7s long videos. For eight thousand years people enjoy this fascinated elixir. Drinking wine is like reading a book about adventure and history. You can travel across different countries, discover the land, culture, climate, and soil – all the essential things you desire. You don’t need a time machine because we drink in the past. While thinking about how many sunny days, and rainy days have been in that year, and all the things that could have happened on the vineyards and how those juicy berries were processed in the cellar. All this matters. So, explore this fascinating world, sip by sip and don’t forget that wine pairs best with food, and as we always say… “Drink more wine, you’ll be fine!”

About the Artist

The only thing I enjoy more than eating Colorado food culture is drawing it.

I'm M. J. Star. I moved to Colorado in 2019 and have been drawing digitally for almost 2 decades. In early 2022, I started drawing art that depicts Colorado's rich food and drink culture. I've been traveling the state going to various breweries, wineries, cideries, bars, and restaurants. I try their food and drinks, and transform all of that into art that celebrates Colorado's blossoming local food culture.

My shop features all original art work draw on my mobile tablet.
