Almost all of my work relies on super clean, crisp lines, so this drip style could have been a fun contrast to that. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe trick, I learned, was in how the piece gets washed after the second layer of paint goes down on top of the soap. It needs to come off quickly so that it doesn't just roll over the whole surface, but if you blast it off with too much water pressure, it can create a bit of texture on the surface of the piece. Interesting to explore, and obviously a major contrast to what I normally produce.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI used this technique a few times with the first run of Wikieup Cactus pieces I made back in 2023, but I haven't found places to work it into my style since. These bottles were the practice pieces in that exploration, and now they are available at a chill, accessible price. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLiving with this piece:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003eThe matte clear coat feels really good under the fingers, but the texture of the paint still stands out just a little bit. If you've always wanted to touch the art in a museum, you're really going to love this feature of my work. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003ePlease note, this was a first run of a slightly chaotic paint technique, so some bottles have a little more texture than others.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical details \u0026amp; care:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003eVacuum insulated stainless steel for hot or cold temperature retention\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003eAvailable with MiiR's Leakproof 360 drinking lid\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eCup holder compatible\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003eIndividually painted and sealed with a matte clear coat\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003eHand washing will provide the longest lasting finish\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"savethepostalservice","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51054138359948,"sku":null,"price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/5357\/8124\/files\/IMG_3387.jpg?v=1782680812","url":"https:\/\/savethepostalservice.myshopify.com\/products\/miir-360-traveler-bottle-drip-style-18","provider":"C.
