Bill Garland, whose work for Mother advertising includes Coca Cola, Stella Artois and now Schweppes, has spent the last few months painting a set of extraordinary backdrops for an very original Schweppes TV campaign. Several arms are noticeably absent in the pictures, and these are replaced by live actors’ arms appearing through holes, gesturing and clasping drinks.
