Recently I was contacted by a local artist, Bryan Hible, who requested permission to paint a picture of one of my impossible bottles. Naturally I was curious, and agreed. I sent him a photograph and waited. Three weeks later Bryan sent me a picture of the finished painting. It was nothing short of astonishing:
A few months ago I revealed that the glass bottles I use to make my impossible bottles had been discontinued. Well, after more than two months of frantic searching, sleepless nights and toil, I am pleased to present to you the new impossible bottle design.
One of my fondest childhood memories is watching the Paul Daniels Magic Show in the mid 90′s. Love him or loathe him, Paul inspired a whole generation, and for me his TV shows were the catalyst for my own interest in magic.
As you know, I make my impossible bottles using normal, off-the-shelf glass bottles. As it happens, the particular brand of bottles that I use contain baby drinks, and I buy them from the local supermarket. My two young children drink the juice, I use the bottles, everyone’s a winner.
I was proud to have my bottles feature in this months Magicseen Magazine. Deputy editor Graham Hey was blown away, commenting:
This week I was invited to appear on BBC Radio Nottingham’s afternoon show with Richard Spurr. My impossible bottles managed to successfully perplex Richard, his team and all of his other guests, so a job well done!
Well, amongst the people of Nottingham, anyway! They say ‘any publicity is good publicity’, and for Impossible Bottle that took the form of an (almost) full-page article in the Evening Post.
Hello and welcome to Impossible Bottle, home to the most unusual and magical gift on the web! Read on if you’re curious about how I got involved in this strange art form…
