Spin art is an art form that primarily uses paint, a canvas and a spinning platform. It is primarily used to entertain and expose kids to the process of art creation, although it can be enjoyed by people of all ages.

To create spin art, an artist  initially decorates or drips paint onto a canvas. The canvas can be anything; however, the most common form of canvas is a small rectangular piece of cardboard. Before the paint on the canvas dries, the artist secures the canvas to a platform that can be rotated at high speed. Once the canvas is secure, the artist can then begin spinning the canvas. Most spinning platforms are electrical.
