Thank you for sharing this technique, is very interesting and informative. Would love to try it.

It would improve this video if you completed it and showed us what you produced using this technique. It would be further improved if you showed us some examples of Andy Warhol produced.

It would improve the video if you shared with us what the result looked after it dried.
That feels like a necessary element to show us a completed piece of art.
