Bottle Front: Homage to Alfonso Mucha "Amethyste |
Tonight's artwork features an unconventional format....the wine bottle. This work is painted with acrylic on gessoed glass, and features the figure of a woman somewhat provocatively positioned in an evening gown tending to her hair. This is based, rather loosely on an advertisement Mucha did in 1900 for Amethyste with a similar figure. The photo right shows the back of the bottle, with the text "Homage to Alphonso Mucha". While not really "fine art", I have created a number of unique individual pieces that could be considered painted sculpture. The artwork isn't really finished until all sides have been painted (and I haven't done to bottom side yet) and the piece has been completely sealed. I am planning to do a whole 'set' of images that relate to the work of Alphonso Mucha.
