Jimi Hendrix, Vinyl Art By Daniel Edlen - A Timelapse

This video shows a complete painting from start to finish, sped up 12x. I use straight white acrylic layered directly on the vinyl record, the black vinyl visually mixing with the white to create the illusion of shading. Once the paint gets in the grooves I can't get it out, so I can't make mistakes any more than a tiny speck. I use a very smashed cheap brush in a modified Pointillistic style, dabbing on the paint. Working from my background in figure scultpure, I'm kind of molding the face, bringing the highlights out of the shadows.
