Jump into Resin Art - Ocean Beachscape
Workshop
Saturday, 1st February,
14:00 - 17:00
So, you’ve decided to give resin art a try? Congratulations, you have an exciting journey ahead of you.
What is resin?
Epoxy resin is a two-part solution consisting of one part resin and one part hardener.
When these two parts are combined, a chemical reaction takes place in which they chemically fuse together to create something that resembles plastic. Once the now-fused resin has cured completely, you’re left with a highly durable material that happens to be extremely versatile, easy to use, able to withstand extreme heat and cold, and can be sanded and drilled if need be.
What is resin art?
Generally speaking, resin art is anything created through the use of combining some resin and hardener for purely aesthetic purposes. Resin can be mixed with paint or inks to create colorful patterns and designs, poured on top of paintings to create a thick and glossy protective coat, or poured into molds with items like dried flowers or shells. Resin art includes both abstract paintings and usable items, like jewelry or homewares.
