SPIN PAINTING ON VINYL RECORDS AND CDs
(It's not sacrilege if they were scratched up to begin with, right?) In furthering my spin painting studies using a converted fan and the same paint mixture used in my acrylic pours, I decided paint on CDs and Vinyl records. The reason I did this was because both CD's and records are spun in order to create music, just as with this technique the paint must be spu in order to make the painting.
