Creative and unique Bottle Cap Portraits by Molly B. Right - Si Bejo unique
Artist Molly B. Right created a series of portraits using overlap bottle caps and covered them in a transparent glaze. The pieces are usually 4ft x 5ft and can weigh up to 70 lbs.
�The leap from narrative paintings to the bottle cap portraits was made in 2002, as I pondered what to do with a large (4'x5?), rust stained, piece of sheet metal. The patterns of rust on the metal brought to mind the Shroud of Turin. I decided to use paint to enhance the vague suggestion of a face, and painted a man�s face on the metal. A circle of bottle caps was used to form a halo, completing the painting, Bottle Cap Jesus. I loved working in a larger scale than I had ever attempted before, and decided to make a companion piece, Mary. The bottle caps migrated from the halo to cover the entire piece. It was with that piece, that I realized that this was going to be my new path. Since then, I have created more than 100 pieces, most of which have been commissioned. Occasionally I have the opportunity to make something that is not a commissioned piece and those can be found on the page Available.�
"I find them (the bottle caps) online and most of them are unused overstock. They�re generally old; some of them date back to the �40s. It�s usually just stuff that people have found in a case in their basement or something. They�re the sort of thing that somebody filed away."
"I start with a full-size, life-like painting and then place the bottle caps on top of the painting. The caps aren�t painted. The portraits� color comes from the color of their logos."
"There can be challenges working with the material. I alter them by hammering them flat so that they layer. Sometimes, I hammer an edge to flatten out an edge or shape it in some way."
"Sometimes, I�m influenced by something I�ve read. Often, people come to me and they want a portrait but they don�t know what they want. I will be inspired to recommend something with meaning."
