Where resin crafting is more than a passion, it is an OBSESSION

I’m not sure if I’m trying to be thrifty or trying to add a layer of ‘challenge’ to my resin painting, but I’m insisting on painting over ones I don’t care for. Painting #62 is the base for this one, and I decided to recreate a resin painting white negative space direct pour with the… Read more »
Resin painting #92 I wanted to practice more with swipes and adding acetone to colors this week. Painting #59 is the base for this new one. I mixed five ounces of resin. One-half ounce of resin was put into separate mixing cups and the remaining resin was colored with Resin Obsession opaque purple. For the… Read more »
Resin painting #91 Since I didn’t like painting #88, I thought I would try for the ‘third time is a charm’ and made it the base of this week’s painting. I mixed five ounces of resin. Two each were colored with Resin Obsession opaque magenta and Resin Obsession opaque purple plus a 1/2 tablespoon of… Read more »
Resin painting #90 I started this painting with the intention of doing a resin swipe. While I did a couple of swipes, it morphed into me pushing resin over itself with a heat gun. Here’s how it started: I painted over my resin swipe painting from last week. I mixed six ounces of resin and applied… Read more »

Resin painting #87 I’m focusing on ‘do-over’ paintings for the next little bit. Partly because I don’t want to be wasteful in my supplies and partly because I’m wanting to feel better about adding a second layer and having it be cohesive with the first. The base for this week’s painting was painting #38. To… Read more »
Resin painting techniques #86 I went through some of my old paintings this past week and decided that if I wasn’t in love with them, I needed to paint over them. I liked painting #51, but not super crazy about it. Instead of painting over it, I decided to add some extra color to it… Read more »
Resin painting techniques #85 I wasn’t sure what I was going to paint this week, but found I was inspired by another artist’s color combination on Instagram. My painting surface is a 12 inch square ceramic white tile. I mixed five ounces of MasterCast resin. Two ounces each went into two cups, the remaining ounce split… Read more »
Resin painting techniques #84 I decided to take this week to get ‘back to basics’. I made a point to only choose three colors that would blend and compliment each other well: black, white and silver. I covered up painting #67 for this one. I mixed five ounces of MasterCast resin and split it into 3 cups. … Read more »
