8/11/19: Colorado muralist KiriLeigh Jones loves to experiment with new surfaces and new materials. So when she was approached by chemist Lyle Small, president of Chromatic Technologies (the company that makes the mountains on Coors Light cans turn blue when the can is cold) to try their new temperature-reactive paints, she was totally down for the challenge.
The resulting artwork is fascinating. As promised, it changes with the temperature. What looks like a black and white line drawing of a mandala turns into a many-colored masterpiece once the mercury drops. How fun is that?
You can follow KiriLeigh Jones on Instagram and Facebook. And you can learn more about Chromatic Technologies on the CTI Inks website.

Remember the shirts what would change color with the heat? I’ve not seen one that changed with cold before! Very cool. No pun intended!

Hypercolor was very popular in the late ’80s, early ’90s. The company was Generra. I read that they went bankrupt 1992.
