 What's up y'all, did you have an awesome Christmas? I hope you did. I did. Well, as good as can be expected considering I was home sick and this morning I almost cut my finger off but so today I'm going to do something. I'm gonna do an emerald geode and I hope my this has enough battery to not die so I can see what y'all are saying. What's up y'all? Hey TG. Let me grab a charger for this real quick. Charger? Yeah. Really? I've no fear. I'm here. TG, your grain sun tested positive. Christmas was postponed. We were supposed to go up and see Jeff's family but alas. So we're gonna do a green geo today. I'm using Stone Coat Arc Coat Resin of Champions. It's my favorite for many reasons. Today I'm using it for the UV protection and for long working time. I went ahead and mixed it so you guys don't have to just sit here and watch me do this for at least three minutes, making sure to scrape the sides etc. And the colors I'm going to use today are L'orese, Angel White, Hushain, and JJ. I'm gonna use Milky Way from Resinart, Brazilian green and a Rubik's Sky from Resinart and some chunky gold glitter and maybe something else. Who knows? But I'm glad you guys are here to see whatever we create. If you could take a moment and share my channel or a video with people you like that'd be awesome. Help my channel grow. I don't ask for much. It's Christmas. Come on. Give me a solid. And also make sure to subscribe. Leave me your thumbs. So for some of the galaxy pigments from Resinart, you have to kind of like pre-dissolve them in a little bit of alcohol. So that's what I'm doing. I'm just trying to make a little flurry. So I have just like, Mama Dula says, why art coat? Honestly, when I asked them they said I hit something when I was trying to see that question. And now I've lost it. Okay. There it is. When I asked them, they said the regular countertop resin has UV protection as well. Yeah, they both have UV protection, but the art coat has a little bit more UV protection and it's got a longer working time. So I'm just gonna let this start to dissolve in the alcohol. You could use the regular. I just prefer the art coat. The only real difference in the regular and the art coat is that there's a longer working time and a little bit more UV protection in it. All right. So now we have that. I'm gonna do the same thing to Aruba Sky. All these colors you can get on my website, artistildet.com. There's a link down in the description. See, it's kind of chunky. A lot of them, like the Milky Way, will dissolve on its own. However, some of them won't. So I have just learned to do this first. You guys are gonna love these colors. I don't use greens that much on the channel, but Aruba Sky and Brazilian are some of my all-time favesies. I think I only have four Aruba Skies left. So if you're interested, get them while you can. It's like it's like a deep teal, like a steel blue, and then add a lonely shell. That's the color I've seen. All right. While those are baking, I don't have to worry about rushing to put my resin out because I'm using art coat. So I have time. I'm gonna take some of my, well, first I'm gonna take some scissors because I can't open this because I'm essentially one-handed currently in this moment right now in the second. I'm gonna take some of my fireglass and I'm going to kind of just map out how I want my geode to be. This is my fourth inch fireglass. I also have half inch. I like to put this on before I do my, sorry if that was super loud, before I add resin because if I decide to just scrape it or start over or whatever, I don't have to worry about wasting stones that have resin on them already. This is a little pro tip from me to you because it's Christmas for the holidays. I don't want to offend anybody. Please don't be offended because I say Christmas. I celebrate Christmas, so I say Christmas. However, I fully respect whatever holiday you prefer. It almost is starting to look like your Christmas tree, but not going for Christmas tree, but it's okay if it just kind of has the feel of Christmas tree. I think I like that, but I want it to be not directly in the center. I have a little bit of an offset situation so that I can have more glass just here, but I'll add that glass in a bit. Hello everyone. Thank you so much for coming in and watching what I'm doing today. Did you have a good Christmas? I hope so. The stones are falling. Okay. Cool. Love it. I love it. I love it. Okay, now I'm going to go ahead and mix these colors. This one is a Ruba Sky. Wait for it. Wait for it. Thank you to everyone that came to my fire sale. Winter art show. Beautiful, right? Now the alcohol won't really do anything really. It's just to dissolve. I didn't do it for effect. If you want to use alcohol for effect, I wouldn't mix it into the resin like this. It's not really going to do much really. So this color is like an emerald jady color where the other one is a little bit malachite, but this one has the like Avalone shell all color sparkle. So it's like emerald city, but glitzier, if I can say. All right, so now let's do some white. So I'm using a little res angel white. You can also use snow white from sorry, my windows are open because we're doing resin and I have a pothole right outside my door. You can also use snow white from color obsession. You can use titanium from just resin. I'm not really going for an effect, even though lures will give you great ocean cells. This is mainly just for color, not for effect. Well, what I'm doing is for color, not for effect, but you can use lures for effect as well. Have to make sense. Okay, mix them milky way. And then I'm going to save some clear. So milky way looks like the other galaxies, although I will give you a heads up. She has renamed milky way shooting star. So it's listed as shooting star on my website now. It is chunky as well, but it really just melts into your resin. I don't know why some do melt and some don't. Somebody a little bit of help, but it is what it is. That is the sparkliest, shiniest, glitziest, oyster, pearl color of ever. Love it. Did you want to film this for the talk? Or are you good? Gio? Actually, I'm not going to say this. I am going to mix some gold glitter. I'll save that. I am using, since I'm using like, I need a larger size flake. This is just some glitter from, I think Michaels. All the glitter I carry is like a fine flake. And this is like small chunky flake. Anytime you mix glitter into resin, really overloaded. So it's basically lumpy. Because ladies, you've ever used a glitter nail polish, and it looks like super solid. And then you go to like, paint your nails. And it's, you don't really get much out of it because it's just not that chunky or thick or saturated with glitter. That's what I'm trying to avoid by super overloading. Okay, so that's the gold glitter. This is a Rubik's Sky. This is Brazilian green. This is Angel White. And this is Milky Way. Beautiful. All right, so let me clear up some space just a little bit. So B, that's a no. It's fine. I just want to wait if you're going to film. Huh? Oh, okay. Yeah. I was using glitter. So I don't know. All right. Hi, Katie. Thank you. Wings. What's up, Christy? Sorry if I missed anyone as you came in. So I'm going to take this clear that I have and just kind of do a skim coat kind of over my center geode section. This is going to just help it bond to my board and help my glitter glass stick to it. Right. Meow. What color should we do first? Usually it's gold, but I don't have a gold paste. Let's do let's do this Brazilian green first. My goodness, this may in fact look like a Christmas tree by the time I'm done with it. Right. Here's my trick for geodes is don't super fill up your space with resin because then everything's going to want to move. Also, don't grease the pan. Put just enough down to fill the area. Don't worry. Resin self level. So all this thin that that we got going on here will fill in. Doesn't look the absolute greatest right now, but y'all just hear me out. It's going to look a-merzing. For all the Christmas celebrating people, did Santa bring you what you wanted? Next, I'm going to do whites. Just follow this jagged look that we already created. I'm just pushing the white up into the Brazilian green just so that it touches that edge. This is going to save you a lot of resin and a lot of tears if you just do it this way. Because what happens if you just pour lines and lines of resin down, it's going to move because it's resin. So if you keep it at an eighth inch, it's not going to move that much. It seems to be what people have the most problems with when doing geodes is their lines invading other colors. The solution is rather simple. Don't pour such thick lines. You can always go back and add more resin over it. Alright, let's put some Brazilian green, nope, Aruba sky. Y'all, this is one of my favorite colors and I need to use it more. I'm going to do a thicker layer or line of this one. So that's why there's a little bit more out there. Y'all, that was almost a disaster. I'm pouring on one of my white cradle boards. I use these when I do alcohol links. No prep. It's kind of amazing. I think I have them online. If you're interested in them, let me know if they're not online and I will get them listed for you. This one is 16 by 20. You guys are asking questions. I will check in a minute. So if you're asking me directly a question, just hold off for just a second. Otherwise, my amazing mods, thank you guys for being here. Can help you out in the meantime. Kind of feel like I want to add a little bit more pigment into my Aruba sky because I have an amazing art coach. I have a little bit more working time so I can go ahead and mix more up. A little bit more than I anticipated, but that's fine. Just want to make a slurry. I'm going to pour the resin into this cup, mix it, and then pour it back into the original cup. I don't know why, but that's what I'm doing. Isn't that a gorgeous color? Sorry. Right. We have that as a little bit more of an opaque shade. We can move on with our painting. I'm going to put a bit more through here so I can start to kind of meld in with that first fit. You can see how it makes a difference. How much you add in. If you go light on your pigments, then you'll have a lighter color. I don't know if it may look extra awesome having it two tone like that. We'll find out together. Erica, where'd you get your sticky pens? What are they called? Do you sell them? Joe, I do not sell sticky pens, but they are from Deco Art or Deco Craft? Deco foil? It's Deco. You can get them on Amazon. This is a melamine. That's probably not how you say it. It starts with an M. That's a whiteboard. I don't know if there's going to be a summit, but I can ask the guy that would know. That's how I talk to Michael. I'll ask him. Let's add some glitter. I'm not going to add a thick line of glitter. I'm just going to build it. Apparently, I had green on my pinky. So cool. Just like with the green, it's going to move the colors closer to each other with my finger. If you don't want to put your fingers in your resin, you can always use a stir stick. When I move it, it like leaves a patch of not glitter behind. When I mix it, I'm sure some people are like, ooh, that's too much glitter, which by the way, that's not a thing. But now you can kind of see, especially right here, wherever I'm moving it around, it'll thin out. Just keep that in mind when you use glitter. I think we need a little bit more up here. What do you think? I know you would agree. Looking more and more G.O.D. as we speak. Yeah, I said G.O.D. Let's mix a little bit more Brazilian in here. I just went directly in without alcohol first. So we're going to see if that works without dissolving it first. If not, I'll just have to pick out some little color patches, pockets, patches. I'll have to pick out some color that didn't quite dissolve if if there's an issue. Hi there, Bowie. I can see some bits of color that didn't dissolve in here, but it's not a super big deal because I'm not really going to be manipulating it that much. So it's not going to thin out enough to really be seen. Just be advised that that's a thing if you're using the galaxy pigments from Resonate, which you can get on my website, artistyledeath.com. I like offsetting my G.O.D.s. There's one of those color freckles that didn't quite dissolve. I like offsetting slightly my G.O.D.s. I don't know why. Do you guys do your G.O.Ds like straight on or do you offset them? I also don't like to make my lines identical. Hello everyone that's just joining. Welcome, welcome. Alright, so we're going to use Milky Way, aka shooting star for the next line. I kind of like how it looks just leaving it alone, but I can't leave it alone. But you see a piece like that in my future. And also now that I'm looking at it with like a blank outer edge, I'm thinking I might not do a full G.O.D. and just do one up until this point. I think I like how that looks. What do you guys think? Flow Art by Jessica, there's a like a group that orders into the UK. They do a big group order. If you message me on somewhere on Facebook, I can add you to the group message so you can order through them. If you like, I need a brown. I need a brown. That is blue. That's not cute. I swear I have all of the browns. You know what? Let's just make some black into one of these greens. For my next trick I'm going to be using black truffle from Colored Sessions. It is a super black paste and that is nothing in it. Please do this one. I'm just going to deepen the color by adding some black. I don't know what this will do. I'm hoping it'll just make a super, super, super, super, super dark green. It's kind of the cool thing about all of the pigments and pastes and powders and all that that I have on my website is you can mix them all to make new colors. It's pretty dark. Hey, hey guys. We're going to add a little bit more of the black. Yes, and I have a Facebook group, ATDs, Poor People, full of amazing and beautiful and talented artists that love to share ideas and be super helpful. All right, that's pretty dark. So what am I going to do? I'm going to make this my outside edge for a rockage. Can y'all hear me now? I put a different headphone on. Hello, Millie. Okay, good. Sweet. What's up, Shane? Hello, Christy. It is kind of gun-medley, isn't it? So I'm kind of stippling this outside edge. I'm not sure why, but in a moment, I feel like it'll look more rocky. Once it starts to blend out, I've done many a geode. Cool, thanks you guys. Hey Veronica, welcome to the live. Oh, I almost just ninja chopped my that. Okay, now I think I'm going to add, I think I'm going to add some glass right through here. This is still the half inch fireglass. I love it because it sometimes looks like ice. Whoa, calm down. I don't want a super thick line. Also, I can't control my pinky because I have a splint on it, so I just scraped up all of that pigment. At least it's pretty. I'll fill it back in. I think sometimes resin artists worry too much about messing up, especially people just getting into resin art. Let me tell you, from someone who does resin basically every day, don't let that stop you from creating. Take chances, make mistakes, get messy, and create something beautiful. Right, see, then, tweet. I'm going to put some of what I have left of the Milky Way on top of this, so it's a little bit sticky because I want to put some glitter glass, and it's not going to stick to plain, plain Jane dry glass. So I'm just kind of moving it about, hoping it doesn't stay that opaque on my glass. I have to hit it with some heat to kind of melt it down some. Where's my heat? There it is. So when you add intense heat to resin, what happens is it spins it out, which can be good or bad. In this case, I don't want to do that to everywhere because I'm just going to move my lines a little bit too much, but for right there, right where I did it, it's a good thing. Okay, okay. I'm going to add more of our Aruba sky because it's beautiful. I think it'll add a great dimension right next to that glass. Then I'm going to also, I think I'm going to run a line of it through the Brazilian because why not? Maybe even through this Brazilian, just on the edge of where the white and the Brazilian meets. I love adding just a little bit of depth through some colors. Now that's going to push my white a little bit, so I'm going to put the white back through so it doesn't get completely eaten up. And I feel like I should add another line of white somewhere. Let's put it through the Milky Way. If you're adding resin to something and you get this little like little Debbie swirl look right here, it's because you're hesitating and not moving fast enough. Hurrah for the pro tip. Okay, I feel like I need to add more gold glitter because it's kind of getting eaten up. I'm just going to add it right there on that outside edge. I don't know how much left, but I feel like I need to add more gold maybe to the outside of our center. Let's hope I have enough to go all the way around. I did, so okay. We can make this a little bit prettier. Cool. Yeah, vamp. Veronica, I do have kits. They, I don't know if I would call them really starter kits. I have like full complete resin kits that have everything you need to do a pour, and then I have videos online that go along with each kit so that you can like paint along. That's what you mean by beginner kit? If you mean like a a kit that just has all the colors that you would need as a beginner, I don't have one of those, but if you get a mystery box and just tell me you want like beginner colors or tell me your favorite colors then I can fill fill that according to what you request. All right, so I'm pretty much done adding the resin. I'm gonna add a little bit of heat to pop whatever bubble. Not a lot of heat because then you're gonna thin your resin and it's gonna want to travel. Now I'm gonna add one of my super ultra favoriteist things in the worldwide world. It's called Collider Glass and yes it is as amazing as it sounds. It's actually probably more amazing than it sounds. Let me just get some of this added on so I can take my gloves off and I'll show you up close what glitter glass looks like. Looks like magic and icicles and unicorn laughter. I tried really hard to find a picture of a green geo that I did to use for the cover photo but couldn't find one, but after seeing the cover photo I want to do a geo like that. If you guys would like that, leave me a comment in the description box and let me know and I'll do that. Little color deposits. You guys ready? You're not ready. Nobody's ready. Okay, thank you officer. I took my gloves off too soon. One second. I'm gonna take the other one off. Now, I'm not supposed to get that sweaty. Whoops. Hey P-mom, no worries. What do you guys think about glimmering glass? Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. I also put some out here. I think I got some there. All of that reflection is from the glitter glass and then also there's some glitter but it's my little Debbie icing from hesitation. That's okay. It'll end up sinking and shifting a little bit because it appears that my table is not level so everything is shifting downward which is fine. I think I want to, I don't know if it'll make much of a difference because it's kind of the same color but since it has resin self-levels that'll just fill in on its own. Do I want to pull some white in? I'm gonna do this and hold my phone at the same time. Not the easiest thing to do looking through a phone. I like it. What do you guys think? Make sure to leave me a comment down in the description box. Goodness. You think that a little bit was too much? I don't think so. Thank you Pamela for the reminder to like, subscribe, share. It's very malachite, huh? 72 bananas from TG. Thank you so very much. I know you can't mess with the glitter glass. You can't even really tell it's there. What's it all going for Jessica? Thank you so much for that. And it was super easy. You guys watched it happen in 47 minutes and 21 seconds. Pretty many. So you guys feel free to make your own version of this. If you do, give it a shot. Make sure you tag us wherever you post it. We are on every social media platform ever out there. Are you gonna bring out the Montana gold? Well, since you requested, I will. Let me grab some of the gold. It definitely adds a different, awesome, super brilliant. So I'm going to be using liquid gold. You can find 5 mil and 10 mil jars of it on my website if you want to try it before you buy a big bottle of it. I like to pour it out into something that the words are hard. The propellant. Okay. See all this yellow that's soaking up into the rim right here? That is the propellant or the stuff that makes spray paint stay liquid until it is sprayed. But I don't want that. See you can still see it some in there because when I stir it there's some dark areas in the break of the paint. So I'm trying to get all that to soak in. You can see wherever it is right here. It's even on the stick. It's starting to get yellow. You have to outlining this drip even. I'm gonna do a roadside test to see if enough of it has soaked up. So what happens if you don't let it soak up is that the spray paint will grow or bloom until it starts to crack because it's grown so much or bloomed so much that it can't keep its shape anymore and it's drying as it's stretching. Spray paint dries really really fast. So when that happens it'll crack. Sometimes it looks like cute little flower. Most times it just looks not cute. So I do a roadside test to see how much it's going to bloom. Caller from Palo Alto. If you're calling me I'll get to your call in just a moment. So I wanted to stay relatively as thin as it. I put it down because if it does that means it's not really blooming. All right looks like it's good. So where should we add our first gold line? Maybe through here because that seems to be the darkest. I'm just going to follow my line of glass and this is a floating gold so it will not sink on you. It will stay on the surface and it will really catch the light. I'll give you a close-up of what it looks like in just a moment. I like having some thick areas in the gold line and some thinner areas. To me it's more natural but if you rather it be a different way then do you. Do whatever makes you happy. Do what colors you like. Do what designs you like. I'm trying to wipe off my star stick in between each application so it doesn't contaminate the gold that I have in my cup. And I typically put some around my glass as well. So let me find a pipette and then our beautiful green geoid will be finished. Now I have a pipette somewhere. Now every time you pick up this gold shake it up because it settles super super quick. I'm just going to add some out here on the outside edge. It's going to splay and split and travel but I will just use my star stick and then edge up whatever may crack in that gold that's kind of playing out in these areas. See how it's splitting up right here. It'll keep doing that and in fact it'll get a bit worse. So I'm just going to run a star stick through it to stop that from happening any further. I guess if you wanted to do a Christmas tree that would that would work for it. And I got a couple splotches of gold in there. That's fine. All right oh my light is off. That's the problem. So that floating gold will always sit on top and be super shiny. That being said don't sand over any floating gold like this. You will sand it off because it's a topside gold. It's just sitting on top so if you sand the top you're going to end up sanding that bit away. So you guys what do you think of this? Do you love it? Do you like it? Do you want some more of it? I really appreciate y'all joining me. Thank you Jenny for that compliment and thank you to everyone that's watching me today. If you have requests for anything you want to see me test or make or try to recreate comment down in the description box. I mean in the comment box in the description box you can find ways to reach me ways to find all the pigments that I'm using today. And yeah if you decide to give this design a shot make sure you comment somewhere and tag us so that we can see it. Of course it will be for sale. I have no idea how much off top of my head I would say 300. So yeah if you're interested let me know. And so yeah I hope you guys have an awesome day. Hope you had an amazing holiday. And we'll see you guys tomorrow for an early two o'clock live. Oh let me show you the beans. Buh-bye. I know you guys came here for Bowie. I know everybody just came here to see Bowie. Everybody just loves to see Bowie. Don't you think Bowie? Don't you think? Don't you think? Yeah it's time to go outside isn't it? You know it. Y'all have an awesome night. You're amazing. We love you guys so so much. Be kind to one another. You never know what someone's going through. So you don't have to- There's B right there. So yeah y'all have an awesome night. See you tomorrow. Bye. Thank you Cerulean Blue. Can you say bye Bowie? You did.
