Lie still, little bottle: further progress on "Adaptive Reuse 2"

As I stood in front of "Adaptive Reuse 2" yesterday, drinking a bottle of Sprite, an idea occurred to me. That plastic bottle was a perfect shade of green to coordinate with my hodgepodge creation. So once I finished my drink, I washed the bottle out, slathered on some Sculpt or Coat--an amazing non-toxic adhesive that's strong enough to glue plastics together--and adhered it to the canvas.

Little by little, "Adaptive Reuse 2" is accumulating the right objects and pretty soon it will be complete.
