im saying, dip in the sc
freeze the sc onto the disc

while the disc is still cold, dip in the dye mixture and hopefully the frozen sc will block the dye from the disc

thats a good point. Thats definitely a trademark of his brainwaves is that they smell like grape

what about this comment he made on a pic?? stencil? say whaaaaaaaat!?!?

Brainwave Disc I guess I could have just slapped the same stencil on both discs and dyed one orange and the other turquoise- but, to me, that's NOT art.

I think he was doing a mix of positive and negatives among all his dyes. This is one of the reasons its so elusive to try to recreate because he really was versatile in what he was doing. If you look close at some of his pictures his veins will have picked up some colors from the surrounding dye while others the veins will have streaks of different colors.

Here is one where the veins transition colors.

i agree, thats why i say i think he was dying the veins, unlike that saint where it doesnt look like they were. i really dont know, and im tryin my best to figure it out

I am thinking that the last one was a situation where the aqua "body" dye bled through whatever was in place for the veins.... thoughts?

The second one is definitely a multiple dip of some kind. Dont know how...

i have no clue
