Gothic Twin - Mixed Media Bottle Art

Description

I have somewhat been a bottle hoarder for some years now, though not necessarily consciously. I tend not to throw away sauce bottles or jam jars which I find attractive. It is also rather peculiar that I have never thought of using my bottle collection in my artwork ... until a few days ago.

A couple of days ago, I was staring at my "empty bottles" shelf, thinking if I should just take them all to the recycle bin to create some space for "more important kitchen stuff". But it was not meant to be, because my plan immediately backfired when fascinating Gothic-looking images began to take shape in my mind. I immediately got down 2 of the smaller bottles, which were Woodwards Gripe Water vessels in their past lives, and swiftly ferried them to my workspace. In a little over 72 hours, the Gothic Twin was born. Carpe Diem and Carpe Noctem.

It remains to be seen if my other bottles will have a new lease of life like their Woodward friends, but they are definitely not going to the recycle bin just yet.
