Around 1 in 25 people experience the neurological phenomenon known as "synesthesia". Essentially, it means that two or more of your senses have merged together . I personally experience the sound-colour variety. This means that when I hear something, my brain processes it as both sound AND colour . Almost all of my art is inspired by my experience with synesthesia, from pieces of music like this one, to names, to curse words! . . . . #synesthesia #mandala #trippy #trippyart #psychedelic #psychedelicart #vinylrecords #vinylrecordart #arthurbutusdesigns

Happy St. Paddy's Day, folks! Did y'all know that I spent ten years of my life as an Irish Dancer? I even went to the world championships in 2011 ✌🏻 . . . . #hozier #hoziertok #paintingprocess #satisfyingpainting #synesthesiaart #satisfying #dotmandala #arthurbutusdesigns #vinylrecordart #vinylrecord #paintedvinylrecord #painting #acrylicpainting

One of the last steps I have when painting a vinyl record is to go in with black paint (and quite possibly the tiniest paintbrush you've ever seen) and paint over any imperfections. For this video, I'm just covering up the more obvious pencil lines that I use for symmetry, though I often use the same method to "separate" dots that have merged together to form awkward looking blobs, and even alter the shape of dots that aren't as round as I want them to be. This step is incredibly time consuming so trying to convince myself to start the process is always a massive internal battle, but I actually enjoy it quite a bit once I'm in the groove! . . . . #finishingtouches #painting #paintedvinylrecord #vinylrecord #vinylrecordart #arthurbutusdesigns #dotmandala #handpainted #synesthesiaart #dotmandalas #finaltouches #artistlife #satisfying #satisfyingpainting #paintingprocess
