How to Make Layered Resin Art
Channel: Caleigh Bird Art
Date: 2019-01-31

Using acrylic resin layers on your art can be a bit scary and daunting, but it is actually a very simple process. Today I have a step by step tutorial detailing the way I create my 3D paintings, including tips on how to make sure your resin pour is a success. 

I've also included a painting I accidentally destroyed using resin which was so sad! But at least I can use it as a teaching tool to show you what NOT to do when layering your own paintings. 

There are a number of good brands of resin out there, just make sure you purchase one that is artist grade and will dry crystal clear without turning yellow eventually. 
This is where I got this kind: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Crystal-Clear-Epoxy-Resin-General-Purpose-Bar-Table-Top-Coating-Wood-2-Gal-Kit/112968193966?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

As long as you follow the instructions closely you should have no problem creating incredible 3D works of art. Happy Pouring!
