Just a peek

This last month I have been busy stencil painting a set of champagne bottles for a window display. The reason it has taken so long is because they are all different sizes and I wanted to make them work as a set. Here is just a preview of them, I will post a picture of them soon once they are in the window.

Testing

I've been busy cutting stencils, then testing them to make sure I like them, before spray painting through them onto bottles. I am painting a set of beautiful champagne bottles for a display so I need them to be perfect.

More Girls

The champagne bottles I painted the other week have gone out into the street as free art.  It felt odd leaving them in places as they seem to have their own personalities - a bit like saying goodbye to a child.  I then collected some new bottles to paint.  Being made of glass they are quite fragile and yet heavy to carry around so just as well some of them already have homes to go to.  

  

Spirit in a bottle

I have started a new project which came from an older project.  Last year I made a piece of work 'spirit in a bottle' that was a champagne advert with a superimposed angel face.  The new project is a collection of empty champagne bottles that I have added images to and I am thinking of putting them out as free art.
