we have a locally famous graffiti bridge that regularly gets repainted and these folks started making jewelry from the big thick paint chips...

It's interesting that all the jewelry on that page are all abstract designs, just circles or wavy lines.

Someone somewhere came up with the idea of painting a motorcycle tank using lots of layers of different coloured paint, then scraping the each layer off to reveal a shape in the colour of the next layer. When they were finished, it was a geometric shape, or a logo, or maybe even a portrait.

I tried searching for something similar, but google isn't very helpful these days.

I always wanted to try to make this myself using cans of spray paint. Of course, I would probably gas myself with fumes.
