This is just another bottle painting. Very simple, just dip your brush tip into the colour bottle and add to the bottle at Random locations to form dots. Continue until the entire bottle has been covered. I used primary colours red, green, blue and yellow. The top half of the bottle is painted directly with mixes of pink, green and yellow.

I found this narrow neck and round bottom shaped dark bottle. Thought of painting squares of different colors at the bottom and brush strokes pressed above. Have a look at my bottle.

I have painted this bottle red using ceramic colors, a total bright red and used combinations of blue, yellow and green colors to make the flowers and tiny petals in the foreground. I have just pressed across the brush to make the flower petal combinations onto the red background. Have a look at my art below.

A Green bottle.... I could only imagine a Christmas tree. So here I go... A Long green bottle and ceramic colors of black, white, red and blue is what I used. I made the Christmas tree outlines with colors white and black. The inner and outer fillings are with red, blue, white, black etc. The stars and Christmas balls are added to fill the tree. With Christmas on the way this was the best I could think to get my green bottle painted.

As I explore glass bottle painting... I found a Diya bottle in our backyard trash. I thought I should try this out. So here I go... I used some left over ceramic colors directly onto the bottle. I did not mix any water into the colors. The top part is painted white with shades of blue below and the bottom painted black. The bottle is decorated with some glitter beads of pink and silver.... This Bottle can be used as a decorative for Christmas as well having the blue and white Christmas colors.... Lets explore more of glass bottle painting. I'm just loving it....
