What’s a light moment you might ask? It’s taking that much needed time out of your day to celebrate yourself and your loved ones, whether it be over a delicious treat or a good laugh. To help encourage more of these moments, Baileys Deliciously Light Liqueur is partnering with contemporary artist, Baron Von Fancy, known for pushing the boundaries of design using expressive lettering, vivid colors and unexpected materials. Equally lively and audacious, Baron Von Fancy is using his individualistic style of art to spark moments for us to admire the unexpected, grin at his clever slogans, and treat ourselves with Baileys Deliciously Light iced coffee (because iced coffee is always a good idea!).
“Each day is a new opportunity to focus on ourselves and appreciate the light moments in life,” says Baron Von Fancy. “I’m excited to partner with Baileys Deliciously Light to help encourage more people to seek out the moments that unwittingly enhance our daily rituals – and sometimes the best way is with a Baileys Deliciously Light iced coffee break.”
To help inspire more of these moments, you can now enjoy a special message from Baron Von Fancy, either by admiring a work of art in your city or by sipping on a cocktail at home with friends and family:

About Baron Von Fancy
Born and raised in New York City, Contemporary Artist Baron Von Fancy (AKA Gordon Stevenson) constantly strives to push the boundaries of his art and designs, employing boldly expressive lettering, incredibly vivid colors, and a range of materials including fluorescents, glue, dyes, and reactive paint. Capturing poignant phrases in his paintings, works on paper, graphics, multimedia, and even commercial works, the artist seeks to question conventions by infusing his work with elements of street art that inspired him since he was a child.
