How to PAINT and RESIN Mixed Media Art - STEP BY STEP
Channel: ArtResin
Date: 2022-09-27

Mixed media artist Gillian Schultze draws inspiration from the wilderness of northern Canada where she lives. With acrylic paint and upcycled textiles representing rocks, sky, water and trees, Gillian creates landscapes rich with texture and color. Her mixed media paintings are finished with a coat of resin to seal and protect them, while enriching their color and depth.

Gillian creates her mixed media paintings on wood panels. The wood provides a strong, smooth surface that allows the paint to spread with ease, as well as supporting the weight of the resin without sagging, like stretched canvas often can. Gillian enjoys how the wood grain becomes stained by the paint, creating an interesting texture and look which she incorporates as part of her piece.

Gillian walks us through her creative process, painting two different mixed media landscapes, from start to resined finish. If you've never painted before, this is an ideal project to start with: Gillian draws inspiration from nature where nothing is perfect, so your painting doesn't need to be perfect either! 

Enjoy!
