Drink me by Rachel Harries
11:00I start this project by popping a hat pin through the lid of a miniature bottle and adding a little adhesive to keep it in place.
I then added some greyboard and resin pieces to the bottle and a bit of Sand Texture Paste.
I then start adding layers of paint spraying a little water on each layer and drying in between layers, this is a similar technique to that used in the Daily Art Mixed Media Box, I start with Sepia, then Glossy Chocolate Brown, I then use some Glossy Aubergine and then Bronze.
I use some black paint and water spray, I then dry brush with a little white gesso to knock back some of the colour.
I use a little Bronze and Copper Patina Wax and I add a little more Aubergine Glossy Paint and spray with water I adhere the bottle to the tag this acts to hold the tag Upright so the piece can be free standing, I also tie a greyboard key I have decorated in the same way to the top of the tag.
There's my tag, I hope you enjoyed this project, stay safe, I'll be back next week with another one.

A truly stunning piece of artwork Rachel. Your altered bottle looks amazing and the way you've painted everything up is so gorgeous.
