Painting Bottles

The obsession of bottles continues... I decided this time to paint bottles. I think this painting took less time than any of those mixed media decorated bottles I made last week. I love almost any type of medium but a canvas and acrylic paints still my most preferred. Well I think melted crayon is second.

Bottles, Bottles and more Bottles....

It's been a while again, I'm fully recovered from my hand surgery so back in the art studio creating. I have had an obsession of bottles, good thing I've been collecting them for a while. I decided to decorate them using mixed media. The easy part was to used the mixed media, paper, gel medium, bling, metal and fibers...the hard part was to find the right things for the toppers.  So let me get started with the #graphic45 bottles.
Using the line Botanical Tea and Couture #graphic45...

 I had to do a steam-punk bottle... yeah... me! 

Beach... rather mermaids and a wood block sail boat hand painted....

and the rest of the ladies....

Playing with Alice!

Another day at the studio, I haven't done a mixed media piece in a while. I drew Alice in the tea cup last year. My friend Nancy kept pushing to do this piece, she is a fan of Alice. I was inspired by Vicky Papaioannou  in YouTube stacking the tea cups on top of each other. I used a different technique this time by using watercolor crayons for the background, molding paste, white acrylic paint and color pencils. Lots of fun in the studio before I have my hand surgery.
