 What's up you guys? Let me get everything set up. Oh, are you gonna read comments for me? Yes. No, maybe so So today we have special guests in the house Madame Sandy Sanders you all recognize her name from the Chat feed so Sandy knows how to paint oceans with resin But she hasn't tried Marcy's resin, which is what I usually use or I Usually use stone coat art coat, which is what she always uses but Except for with my oceans I use diamond coat or mixed media girl resin I am out of Ocean coat and Diamond coat so We're gonna be using mixed media girls resin. I have a couple of this size a half gallons and one Full gallon in my shop if you guys are interested. Hi Sweet pea April We're seeing with the cake 2d Are you coming in tutor or what's up? We're just seeing you tomorrow. Hi Julie Gale. What's up Sue? I've gone ahead and mixed the colors. I used aqua and Bondi for this color and just Bondi for our light ocean color and Titanium white which I have in stock right now. I have all these in stock right now actually for my Wade shade and the boards we're pouring on are The white Melamine boards, I think I also have those on our website So Sadie you're excited. I am very excited. We can tell I've not used this resin. So I like trying new resins new things Well, it's a good resin It is quite thick So if you measure like ounces per square foot like often I use Around four ounces per square foot, but with this stuff you have to use a little bit more because It's thinner and that's science so We're gonna do this at the same time ish ish Because this resin has a very short working time. Well, not very short. It's average It's 45 minutes to an hour working time so Yeah What's up everyone? Thank you guys so much for coming in you science at its best. What's up vamp? Thank you guys for being here everyone. If you haven't subscribed, please do so and if you Like the video, please leave me a thumbs up and share it if you are so inclined I'm gonna lift this up because we're gonna Super tilt it So initially I was like, I'm gonna teach Sandy how to do this on a live And then I realized Sandy's watched me do oceans like a hundred thousand times Roughly so but I'm still gonna talk my way through it because someone watching may not Know the things so I went ahead and mix the colors and I'm gonna take the clear that I have left and figure out my Shore line where my wave is gonna be And I do this with clear so that if you don't like it you can move it if you have a whole bunch of Colorant in your resin then it could stain your substrate. So just keep that in mind Also, this is going to separate my white From My blue so that when I manipulate the wave it will stay a white wave instead of like a pastel blue so Then next thing I'm going to do is take my lighter color, which is only Bondi And I'm going to put it close to my shoreline and just have a little bit out in the deep And then I'm going to take my deeper color, which is the aqua and Bondi mix and put it Where I'm going to have my deeper water Because if you look at an ocean The deeper water is darker because ocean science And then the next part super easy you just blend them together. Are you laughing at me? It is ocean science Oceanic e-science And the next part super easy. You just want to blend Not blend really you just want to make sure there's no dry parts In your ocean area people ask me all the time about the the sand area and I leave that without resin on it because I Like my sand to be matte and everything else to be glossy Because in my world as a mermaid sand isn't shiny it is a flatter and Water is shiny because what shiny is what? So I'm Mona from Vancouver. How are things in Vancouver? Hello. Hello. Um Midnight greetings from London. Jessica and we got people from around the whole wide world who are the stunt hands That's not Jeff. No, that is Sandy Sand is She is who hosts us when we visit Colorado or thinking about teaching another class in Colorado. You guys interested Let me know comment below Blur I already have a hair in my this Because the hair in my home is very talented and And it will go everywhere that I don't want it to be this is a little bit thicker than I used to yeah, it's a lot thicker When you said it kind of is the consistency of stone code I was like wait you put your hands in it Well, it's watching that little mixer mix it and I'm like, yeah, that seems like about the consistency Mm-hmm Thank you Tim for the reminder. Please hit the like all of y'all. I only see one thumbs up but it could be It could be delay. I'm gonna assume it's a delay because I know you guys wouldn't just Stiff me out of a thumbs up I'm assuming I don't know that but I'm assuming So sandy, how long have you been working with resin? about four and a half years Four and a half for for some reason. I thought it was longer than that Heidi says are you guys in colorado now? You know, I'm always down for a class We are not there right now. Heidi. We're thinking about well, we will be there in March For a snow venture. I don't Think we'll be teaching a class on that visit, but you never know The reason I am here is I got stuck And Erica was gracious enough to say come crash at my place Because of the freeze and the airline Oh, no Yeah Southwest Yeah It's not being sweet to their people and she has a couple day layover. So she's hanging out in my place Hello, miss cross from albert. Okay. We got people from all over all the oceans right now makes my heart happy um Now for better. It was a little roller coaster earlier. Well, I'm glad things are better Can you please please? Come close to new hampshire, please Rebecca we are not against Traveling to anywhere I just have to have a class of at least 10 people and a space to teach those 10 people The first step in me traveling somewhere to teach a class is that I need the space So if you can find a space for me to teach at least 10 people Then um shoot me an email and we can start Uh putting a class together in your area If you do find me a space and help me set up the class and do all that then you get a free seat in my class as a rule, okay Next I'm going to take my titanium and I'm going to pour it down to where the water and the sand Okay, I know it's resin and I know it's a board would just spray paint on it But it's water in its sand for the purposes of the demo I don't want to have too much white because then It's going to cover up all my pretty color And you want to make sure it touches both the sand and the not sand Stuck give up Because huh you want it to touch both the sand and the water because I want the Wave to keep hold and then stretch back so resin over resin will just kind of roll over itself and not really Let me manipulate it like I want it to but if it's touching the sand Then it will so that's what i'm doing and that's why i'm doing it British Columbia Canada we got a lot of canadiens in there. Love it Heidi says sandy dia is ms right now. Oh, I bet Thanks for this live. I started to have withdrawal. What's up satin skies. Thank you for being here. I'm so glad you're here I know so many canadiens Gail, thank you so much. Where's my Gail appreciate that so much every dollar that comes through the channel goes right back into it And resin's not cheap especially lately. So that's super helps and we love you so much Thank you for everyone being here because every like every view Every everything that you guys do that every every every ever ever All the things that you guys do to What's the word? No, it's not integrate interact everything you do that interacts with the channel Helps us in youtube's eyes to get our videos out there and really trying to get to 100,000 subbies because I want that plaque so hard What's up at mac? You're not that late to the party swamper. What's up? You rock gail. Thank you so much. You got your wave Are you doing more fiddle faddling? No, I just need to uh Connect the dots here. I'm good That is a good point. You don't want any breaks in your wave Because then it won't be a consistent Anything keep that in mind. So I'm going to take my heat gun This is an am take something something or other hg something That jeff has repainted because it looked really bad And I have my wedding cake attachment. You can find the attachment The concert trader nozzle On my website or to sell that comm you can see right here. It has the little split in it There's four so that you can make the attachment smaller or bigger So that it fits All heat guns. I'm assuming I didn't make it. I have no idea. So I'm going to turn my heat all the way up to all the way All the way high and my airflow is going to be all the way high as well I'm going to tilt my Substrates a little bit I'm going to push My waves backwards But first especially since this resin's so thick. I'm going to Pop some bubbles. I'm not worried about popping all the bubbles I'm mainly concerned about getting any fuzzies or hair or anything like that out of my surface because If you don't Then your wave will kind of split and go around it kind of like if there's A rock in a rolling river All that heat I put on it and there's still you can see the bubbles In it I guess I hope you can see the bubbles that are still in there like right here So And it's not that cold here today. It's like it's warm 70. Yeah So if it was cold outside that would be an even bigger issue. I would probably preheat a little bit so There's only one attempt that you can do before You're finished if you do You can't go back is what i'm trying to say you have to do it all in one go No stop and go No stop and go Because if I were to go back and try to do Something to it now um It would melt the other waves And I can tell right here that there's a something So i'm going to pull that out With a this it mess up my wave That's okay Do I have a torch? Small one I know I have a small one somewhere Small um thick No a small fire Oh But I went over here Next to my dust-free zone because you never know when you have to Pull a little dust bunny out and heat it back up That's where I saw one I can't tell um If you try this method at home kids be very careful with actual flame fire you can scorch your resin really easily I'm just kind of dotting around to cover up that error And I think i'm good I don't even have to edge up my wave and Put my white line back on there. I obey fingers crossed You got this sandy you put yours on high when you do all the way high. Yeah, I mean on the yeah Yeah, we're gonna say come back behind that white again a little bit. You got it It looks amazing You can tilt all the way back or not. It's totally your prerogative Let's put a couple like little white Whispies in here for my deep ocean Some waves Totally optional to do that bit that does act a lot different than totally different. Yeah, that's way different Can't go back and do another heat. It's not gonna Won't bode well So this break right here is because your white was behind behind it. Yeah, yeah I'm gonna bring you guys down closer so I can use this as a teachable moment So Here's what I didn't I didn't have any white on the Yeah, there must have been some clear Yeah, there was clear. Yeah under your white. So since the white didn't grab the sand in that spot It just rolled over. So that's why there's white white white white white white white white white white But you can go back and edge up with just add some more white in there. You can Yeah, may not even be necessary, but I think it looks great anyways And it could always be fixed on the next layer too if you put another layer on later. Sure Super pretty though That is way different the um the cells are a lot smaller And they actually stay in place. Mm-hmm very true so I'm going to take these to the dust free zone and we can use the rest of this resin on some coasters If you guys have any questions The mods are amazing, but if you have a question specifically Feel free to leave a comment and as soon as I get back from The dust I will Answer the best of my abilities The dust free zone's fighting me a little bit right behind you here. Whoop Hot behind Reminds me of my days working in a restaurant Which were good days I worked in this restaurant. Um that is uh Really into the color orange for a while so I took a glove off so I have to put Another one on so I went ahead and took some of our MDF coasters and Just dusted some Spray gesso because I was out of white spray paint Except for where the sand is and actually since this is raw MDF You can add like a wave shadow by By kind of sweeping on some clear In the shape of your wave Because it'll look wet I don't even know if that makes sense, but I'm going to show you I realized this on accident So actually I don't know if I can show it on this layer. It may be the next layer that I have to do it That it works While we're doing that I'm going to answer some questions Erica house claire at she I haven't heard from her today I I need to text her and find out if she's okay. I know she was really Under the weather She caught the vid on flight Back from my birthday. So the gold that I sprayed on there is montana black label Um and the gold is gold chrome Vlk 400 dash gold is the Something number color number. Thank you tutor for answering and sue Pineapple coffee cake uh a yell take that. Thank you ma'am Happy new year miss betty. How are you doing? Okay, so the function Function the application on these is just like on the big piece and even if you go bigger we've done countertop sized Oceans before It all is the same. Let me get a something So with oceans you can get like super creative. You can do blue oceans like regular color you can do Pink oceans. I do rainbow oceans often It's totally up to you. Whatever it is that you see in your artwork is What you can do that saying if you dream it you can make it That's not how the thing goes but that's um effectively What um What is the saying? Not if you build it, but if you dream it If you dream it you can be it or something. I don't know. Is that a Nike commercial sounds like it sounds like it It does So you just blend those up into each other just like on the last one And just because I do it this way doesn't mean there aren't other ways to ocean that there aren't um You know, there's a lot of people that do oceans. This is just how I ocean I haven't done a purple ocean in a while. I think I need to do one of those soon And you don't have to have gold or tan colored sand. I do black oceans a lot Always works out pretty well Is the resin ocean coat it is actually mix media girls uh art resin If you dream it you can build it. That's what I there you go. That's what it was So that kind of thing That sounds right to me. That sounds for some reason sounds accurate, but um This darker resin is so much thinner and it's because I had to put more Pigment in it to get the color darker. It's um Still awesome color. I would jar it myself if I could I don't know if you guys can hear but jeff's serenading everybody in the background while he's putting groceries away Yeah, uh-huh. I took my eyes away What did you do? I took my eyes away Uh-huh Oh your glasses No, my um My blue went behind my white Or my clear. Oh, that's right. It's okay. Just put a little bit more clear up So I'm also going to show you guys how to do the ocean wave with a torch and that I'm going to call a little bit advanced because Of how easy it is to scorch your resin Thank jeff's juggling That white line that's going to just have to be a little thin Okay, so while sandi's setting up hers. I'm just going to show you guys how to do This dance with a torch Sorry about that My phone went to Sorry, sorry, sorry So while sandi's setting up, I'm going to show you guys how to do oceans with a torch. This is more advanced be careful because You can burn your hand and A glove will melt to your skin and that's never fun Also, it's easier to scorch your resin with a torch Judy So I'm going to check for a little floaters just like last time. We're good Check it in the glare good All right, so I'm going to take my torch and do t tiny circles And keep this on a tilt You know see super So essentially once it starts to flow I'm pulling back I just used my face a little bit to Give it some ripples You can leave it like this or you can take your torch and Add a couple accents and make more cells so See Here you have that very obvious light blue right there and then there's A hazy blue after that. I don't know if you guys can even see like right in this area that hazy blue I'm putting This area like residual heat area That's what I'm using To kind of tap on to my wave to make Cells come up because what is happening is it's dissipating a little bit So this is what it looks like right now And I'm going to try to add a couple more cells in this area here You can see it start to split and add new cells That's how you can ocean with a torch See this shadow that's coming out That's from the resin touching this raw mdf and then us rolling The resin back so it's Some residual resin, but it will end up looking like a shadow under The wave Thank you, jerry So You can do another one like that. I'm so awful at white I'll get it Any more white? No, I'm good I just need to Get it where it's supposed to be Sure You need a hair tie all of your beautiful hairs, you know, I'm good. I'm not near it. Okay Check this again. I have when I start to manipulate it my fingers are Like this I'm as in the middle under this coaster as possible So that I don't accidentally hit myself with the flame because I've done that before and it's not fun times Nothing floating in it check it with a glare of a light Tilt it little circles I just get it to move a little bit And then I use my face So it has all those fun ripples Oh close that looked fun already But there's not really any cells right here. Whoop not really cells right here. So I'm going to Tap it With the residual heat from my flame and get it to disperse a bit Hold on be So this isn't really doing much because it's It's too thick of white. So I'm gonna Send it out by just wiping some of it off And then that will fill back in I'm gonna tap it with my heat With a flame like this, it's very easy to scorch your resin I don't like any of that part So I'm just doing more to it So I get it how I want it. All right, then we got to add more heat also It is really wise to let your resin cool down When you do so much manipulating There was something I was gonna say a second ago. I can't remember what it was Sure, it was important. Um, does anyone have any questions? About oceans or about resin or about anything So the dark blue color Julie is The bondi and the aqua Mixed together the color passion tents. I wonder what would happen. I'm gonna Uh experiment with a something a little coffee stirrer Just because I'm using the torch sanny you can absolutely proceed with the So I'm gonna just pre thin it out This stick just to see what it'll do Just stick swipe it stuff is so thick and gummy right now I don't know what this is gonna do. I'm just Doing the test so you don't have to right now. All right, so it looks like that I'm just gonna so You can see right here where it's thin white If I just tap it with the residual heat those cells will start to come up So I'm gonna just use my face again because I don't know if On its face. It's all right. It'll still work It's still work. It's broken, but it's so good. Uh, I put white down Because it's sand But my sand live That was a fun experiment, but I like it better when you use your face Instead of try to swipe it Maybe it's something I will investigate more At some point. I think I'm gonna end up using the heat gun On that one. I think you have to experiment where you just don't go anywhere. It's a stagnant, I think Especially on with resins that are this thick you really need to preheat it Like that soft wave I'm gonna fix my gross ocean. Oh my gosh for this my long hair You did get a hair in there. Um, but it's it's not in it, but it's it's next to it It's in and around it. It's around it much better than how it did a second ago Nice noise All right, I'm gonna give you guys a close-up in a moment But first I'm gonna answer Any questions you guys have that the mods May not have gotten to what's the best white for sales my favorite my go-to is titanium from just resin I have them in stock. What's up, Evelyn? How are you doing? Thank you, Matt Jensen What did you use to protect the back of the coaster so you can put like cork On the back what's that qs creation you can put cork on the back, but I usually Just coat it in a polycrylic And then put the little bumpers that people get for behind their nope The bumpers that people get to keep their cabinet doors from slamming was a little felt Fingerprint size dots um That's what I use And that's how I protect the back of them Let's give you guys a close-up Can you hear the waves crashing? I think I feel like I can Makes me want to go to an ocean. That's an angry ocean Makes me want to go to the ocean Ew, I like that one I really like this one that you dropped. I like how it like I did I dropped it back here I like how it like swirls out Beautiful sandy you did Thank you. Thank you banging job It's definitely a lot different resin Yeah, so that's the thing you have to have the right materials You have to have the right resin the right pigments and the right heat source to get an ocean It's a lot easier with this. I have to fight with it with the other you do and then I think you it's easier If you let the white thicken like you mix it pre-mix it and then let it thicken up for like, I don't know 20 minutes That's a dangerous game to play And it doesn't always work Well, I think too that preheating Your clear your and your blues and your greens And then dropping your white and then just not preheating that Yeah, um, I think that That helps significantly because I heated up the rest of that And then I dropped my white I think Good to see that Garrick, what's up? How are you doing miss you? I thought for some reason you would be at that, um Acrylic workshop That the masses did But yeah, I didn't see your face so sad, but I'm happy to see you here I hope you're doing well if you guys don't know Garrick is an amazing acrylic artist Make sure you check out his channel if you haven't already He does brilliant work I'm a fan So check him out and subscribe Um, also if you guys have a second How the piece from yesterday if you haven't checked out the shorts No, I'm not talking about the wardrobe. I'm talking about the Little youtube videos That youtube is doing so they can be like Tiktok And all the other things Um, don't worry about your sandy areas sandy. Ha ha ha because We can just tape off their resin once it's cured Yeah, and then re spray paint it and sand it and make it Restore it back to its original state So Ah, you took your gloves off. Yeah, I did. I will um, I'll move those. Don't even worry about it. Okay So actually let me Bring this out This is the piece that we did yesterday. I think it turned out the ea utipally I did notice something interesting That Oh, there it is That gum arabic seems to sell When it's put on too thick ps These white dots are from the gum arabic Being just a puddle like just too much of it, but it does this cell thing The sandy and I are going to investigate that But I think it turned out pretty great. These are some of my favorite areas where the gold Kind of shines through and turns the brown a little bit warmer We do alcohol art a little bit We do alcohol ink art soon. Sure I will do an alcohol ink piece on Monday just for you garrick so if you're not here I'm gonna call you and I'm gonna tell you that you made me cry I also I've been experimenting a lot with this technique as you can see and yes, I did record it I'm gonna show you There about the movement This one is still wet Probably if you could just yeah Super pumped about how this one will be turning out because that gold is shining through here Kind of bummed that I added this blue. I don't think it fits really well, but really like This color and the gold together So, yeah It's a fun process I got to clean those up and I did a couple clock faces that I haven't taken the backing off of yet and I Yes, I did record all of those It is wetting colors also also for those that were wondering I Let me turn you around so I don't get in trouble for orientation um This finger is clear so Not nothing really comes off of it. I sprayed it a couple times with um Clear spray paint or an archival spray and then um I did put some gold spray paint on it as well just to Further make sure that I didn't have any areas where light would come through and it looked a little bit like weak in color so Yeah, this Works just great with a couple layers of clear spray paint. I think I am still going to do um A layer of Quilt coat on the back of it. Yes, I do a lot of This color palette and yes, it was my wedding colors because no shame so I um, I'm starving as usual and so I'm going to go Do the dinner things and I will see you guys Maybe this weekend. It would be a surprise But for sure, I'll see you guys in 2023 because that's coming up in like 20 minutes Anyway, you guys have an amazing evening. I love you guys so much Please subscribe if you haven't leave me your thumbs if you haven't haven't you ate a burrito Sandy ate a burrito and Yeah, be kind to one another because you never know what someone's going through I always remember we do the test So you don't have to also.
