After moving to Arizona, Daniel Edlen began creating his vinyl art using a modified pointillistic technique.[3] White acrylic paint dabbed on creates an image "a bit like a black and white newspaper photo in reverse".[4] It is noted that painting the recycled records is "a meticulous process that... often translates to one hyper-realistic rendering per month".[5] It's also been remarked that it is "a truly unique message-meets-medium portraiture technique, using the physical canvas of artists’ talent — their records — to paint portraits of them in white acrylic."[6] Notable works have been shown by VH1, commissioned by the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Hollywood and VEVO,[4] as well as done for the Roger Steffens Reggae Archives.[7] Edlen was also commissioned by the David Lynch Foundation to paint a series of pieces, which were signed by the artists like Tom Waits and Iggy Pop to be auctioned to benefit the foundation.[8] In an interview with Phoenix Magazine, Edlen stated his reason for creating his Vinyl Art, "They celebrate the subject and the object, the art and the artifact.”[3]
