The Genie in a Bottle
(07.30.05)

A rainy day, time for a little abstract fun. This is a mirrored image (two copies of the same image, one flipped and then the two sewn together to form one). When I joined the two halves, the little guy in the bottle appeared as a complete surprise... formed of rocks and shells. So I'm thinking he's there to grant wishes.

The shadows going in multiple directions are the result of the marbles and bottle being placed on top a printed image.... a bit surreal, at least that's what I was trying for. The image (right), taken earlier in the year, forms the base.

So were you able to follow this? ;)
