 that is like super bright what's up y'all hope there goes Bowie he goes wherever she goes what's up y'all what's up y'all hey guys what I've been working on today it's taken literally all day maybe if you guys asked just nicely he'll give you a close-up tour. Maria all the way from your Rico Springs Arkansas is it it's our Kansas or Arkansas it's the same difference right so I try to make it darker but then I tap on you and then it just goes vampire white. So let me give you guys a story behind this piece my best friend she was my college roommate we worked together for forever she lives in South Alabama we call it LA and she saw a piece in a gallery and she asked me if I could make a smaller one because it was 5 grand and she couldn't spend that much money don't blame her so she sent me a picture of it was like can you do something similar in your style and I was like sure this is what it looks like yeah and so that's what I'm trying to do so we can deliver it on our way down to Florida we leave on Tuesday so if you guys have nice like you may take you guys for an up close this is where I'm at up close view is that picking up everything I shouldn't all these little sparkles hopefully will stay on I think I was gonna say I think when you put the resin on it's going to well the main reason why I wanted to go ahead and add them under the resin even though they probably will get lost is so that they get stained with the inks and also we'll leave these little dots if they move it's okay he's so like scared to run by me like dude I think it looks like an underwater like right so that's what that is now because I'm limited on space hey guys low e beans this is done with alcoholics thank you so because I have limited space I'm gonna have to resin these sums of guns one at a time if this were a triptych where the design was in resin I would keep them together but since I already did the design where the resin doesn't need to stay connected they're not on canvas they're on custom cradle boards they won't be expensive but you're gonna have to take one check it be it may be set by now the wave you can go ahead and de mold it and just you could still push it so I'll probably leave this set up for a couple days actually I'll probably leave it set till we get back from Florida that way it has a week in the same shade oh you can see that I wonder the crystal and you can see the you can't even see it though here it is oh because this is all right yeah it's not shiny this is the thing though like I think it's gonna be really rigid because it's I mean it's I can kind of push it but not as much as yeah normally it would droop but y'all this looks great I don't know if you can even see this beautiful is that it's gonna take for all three of these so I'm just gonna come out the gate I wish you wouldn't walk around here you say hi to the people okay I'm also working on my dad's memorial flower oh yeah that's got three coats of Mod Podge and two coats of spray varnish so far I'm gonna do a couple more tonight and then let them dry overnight and tomorrow I will go ahead and seal it she has a question for you I love it Glowfish this tripod I'm using right now is as the original one the one that I'm gonna recording in my area I love it I haven't really got to use it I'm just getting used to it being there and setting it up with with the laptop and whatnot but it like I've had my camera on it and it holds it like it doesn't move you can you know have it right over your work or above your work and it's it's a very it's three extending like like these right here I'll try to go slow I just got these little guys for our cameras they look like the what do you call it what are those called yeah like like a desk lamp and what and what I've done is these were microphone stands so they have the wrong size fitting so I just took some JB weld and got a one fourth screw screwed it into the bottom of this and then JB weld it to this arm so you can this is on there it's not going anywhere I can unscrew this but that attachment is on there for good but these work good for just like and these were $11 on Amazon the one that I have for my DSL camera is 111 which is so worth it because it holds mirrorless DLS ours so that mirrorless is a very light lot lot more light than your normal camera I believe that's the term they use well silver locks Paula hall Paula hall not Paula wall Paula hall where's that oh Paula hill thank you Paula so I am separating this a little bit and stirring it so that I can make sure it's completely incorporated ocean what's up my doing this maybe a little overkill but I'm a better safe than sorry type of artists when it comes to resin yeah it's and and glowfish it's so worth it it gets your camera up and out of the way and and I'm going to tell you it comes with two extra springs and what that does is it it basically tightens up that I guess it would be the main arm that that to where you can make it stay at a you know a pretty decent over your work level so it and it won't you know dip down or move or fall over um but it's definitely worth it what what happened no that's an old piece Linda that was one of our first stencil pieces carry it's it's worth it it's worth it just even if you just get one camera for now get a nice holder I mean it's a big difference and it's it's well worth it every birthday ocean and these uh these cameras these days are not not very expensive now I just got a full hd pro 90 degree so it's like a wide angle just for my area for 66 bucks 1080 hd camera yeah what what would happen if you didn't spray it but you sprayed that but not with this I'm I'm thinking yeah I'm just off camera spraying these other two canvases he's like right underneath you come here oh that could have been horrible to your usually do um it is crylon gallery series maybe archival 1387 matt looks like this so how many layers should I put on what do y'all think thanks glow I hope so I mean I told her I don't like recreate other people's work exactly but that um I would do it my way I do like the challenge when people ask me to do stuff that they've seen that they like um and then I get to try to figure out how they did it and what was used and certain techniques I like the challenge of reverse engineering inspired pieces if I knew the artist don't give them a shout out but I didn't see a single turn they have me so the spray is um an archival spray so on one hand it seals in the alcohol links and keeps them from fading and bleeding with the resin and secondarily they um I don't know if that's a word I feel like it is I think it is a word it also gives an extra UV layer protection from the sun so it won't like discolor and fade from sunlight I think secondarily is a word if not it should be I like the more you say it the less it's going to sound like a word so mixing resin like this and two buckets and switching them around to make sure everything's fully incorporated it's great to make sure everything's mixed well but it also mixes a lot of bubbles in so we're after baby said it and watch it with a heat gun make sure what does roughly one more and then we'll dry it and get on with it so look what I made today y'all how was that maker space and I learned how to make stickers I got black white gold and pink how are some is that I gotta get some new I gotta get some different um yeah I know the gold is awesome but uh this sticker transfer paper it's not good for this gold because the gold sticks to it so I have to get different the the normal paper like this white paper this is like shiny you can see it's kind of shiny um it sticks it sticks to it this is what you do is you take this off take this backing off and then you put this on whatever you want it to stick on but but this is this gold is stuck to this paper so you can't use the chrome or the gold chrome with that paper but with this paper like this is like you can see it's like a regular paper this doesn't stick to the gold so I've got to figure out some different paper to use but everything else is awesome and yeah I gotta make some so I know this is not the ideal dryer for this but it's what I have handings that's what we're gonna need oh no do you guys hear that pitifulness wait it's literally he can literally he I know he could he could jump over this I know you can't can just jump jump it's all right at this phase I'll just eat over the resin a little bit and darken it to some areas good boy it's shiny from your side it looks satiny it's a matte so the pink the pink looks good on the rose gold he's over there in his toy Bowie loves broccoli stalks like the and his fiance fan of course hey lost art keeps him from coming over here I know y'all Jeff just put tape measure down and it's it's basically stopping him from you know what is it Bowie get it he would be whining right now if there was a gate like if there was this right here from there to there he would be whining this fades at all I'm just gonna add some ink to the top be careful to use glitter glass sometimes run your hand across the surface you will cut yourself you ran by it how you moved it to the side kind of but I figured if it was moving you'd be like oh it moved scary beams and soft and not faded I don't want too much resin on here so I don't want it to take forever to dry because we have to put it in a car and travel with it I don't want it to bend because I don't want to risk pitting and having to do a top coat so very much catch 22 maybe you took it off and they've been back on um not too um I want to risk it pitting I don't know what this archival story does no one's talking they're talking amongst themselves Nina Mandy now my reference has chunks of looks like glass on their piece so I'm gonna have to do that as well Larry those birds are across the street like when we first moved into this building they used to be right in front of our building because there's a whole line of trees just about five feet in front of this building and they put some stuff on these trees and those birds don't go over here anymore thanks pf are you going to put any blue glass in there this glass does not have the mirror on the back because I don't even know what crane what crane fell where I don't I I know it when I drove from makerspace today here I stopped by Home Depot and over by Lovefield that area was trashed I mean it looked like a tornado went through there and it wasn't it was just the winds see what y'all are saying just for a minute so Jeff we're gonna put you on that yeah and you're you're probably hearing the birds that are way across the street like there there's none in this tree and these trees out in front and they're just kind of like flying around this reference has a lot of glass and a lot of texture I think I'm going to only put the large chunks down here and then use the fine glitter glass for the in-between areas do you remember what goes where yeah this is the far right side I'm picking out any of the larger chunks too I'm not sure why I think I just like it better this way and I'm flattening them so they're sticking like way vertical I'm adjusting it's like she stained some of hers I assume a girl did it but that is going something so I'm going to use some glitter glass which Judy has fronted me because I'm out most I hope it doesn't get lost I don't think it will laying on the top like it's catching the lights so well and just a a pro tip and I'm just saying this because if somebody asks you to do something like this and there's a lot of white negative space in there add a little bit more to the price because it is so difficult especially as an artist and if you're doing it to keep all this area clean without a spot without a wipe without a mist or overspray especially if something is in the center and you have it completely white on the outside surrounding it is oh my gosh it is such it's so difficult I've had somebody ask me why you know a white one was more expensive than one that had a background and that's the reason is because it's so difficult to keep it clean and nice and classy I mean you have to be really careful with with actually doing the painting itself because you will definitely ruin it with one fingerprint or overspray or dot or splatter or like one of the a gold background like using the the uh this gold here like this stuff is amazing it it it looks like it does on the on the top of the can but if you put one tiny fingerprint in that anything if you try to wipe it if you try to respray it you have to completely cover the entire piece again thank you Larry are you painting the ocean um she is not but it sure looks like it doesn't it she is doing a triptych or the two other pieces over there she's she's adding the glass to this one and then we'll put it in the dry zone and then grab the other one and do the exact same thing to to all three of them in the little bowie pants looks good babe all right I was debating on whether I wanted to add more um more of this the darker sharks but good happening no no no hold on babe you're gonna drip that spray sealant to try to keep everything from fading I'm using this UV archival from Krylon I still can't see what you're saying because I've got my reference up sorry y'all so if there's anybody in here from Florida uh around the Neptune beach or Jacksonville or Tampa uh or Lando we will be in Florida on Wednesday we are going to look for some class potentially class spaces uh to try to have a class down there sometime in September which we looked it up and it sounds like it's hurricane season down there then so it might be a little bit later who knows oh lovely well we just need a space that can hold at least 15 people comfortably and have uh electrical outlets that that can withstand a couple heat guns um and parking we'll set up a class so you guys can come to the sunny state what's sunny state sunshine state sunshine state will you touch it and see if it's sticky uh huh it's not that bad with this mat on it really it kind of blends it all together you said that was the only sticky spot uh yes linda it is it is a commission piece and uh each piece is 18 by 36 so a total of 54 by 36 it's like four and a half feet by three feet um what was I gonna say uh but if you if you space it a little bit I'm sure she'll probably space them a little bit like these have like a couple inches in between yeah so it'll probably be around 56 crazy g-lady welcome hey you can't run and bark boi you running like you are scared moose that's enough hey do you catch him before he barks no but he's moe cute all right by katter what's up nene what's up nene I wrote you back but I haven't checked email today confession oh we got some new colors in from color obsession you know she just did uh one of the pieces uh the other one is sitting and waiting over here on the couch of course boi is protecting it and it is green I was really concerned but I really like the vibrancy it adds you know what I'm super excited about with this piece is that I don't have to stress about things landing in it because it's a textured piece yeah that's always good that's that's one thing y'all pro tip getting all of them if you if you just have so much trouble and and and you're down to the to the wire and the deadline and you have one more day and there is trash all up in your stuff and it's just you know your dust free zone is out of commission or it's full and just add a little glass add a little glitter and that will get rid of any kind of dust that you'll see I just realized that I didn't add any heat to that piece um if you could take a torch do it in a minute yeah and hopefully it won't be too random of where you have it laid out on here I'm following the flow of the and I can always like hot glue some and post-production yeah gotta get a man torch why that makes me nervous only is it fire it's jeffrey with fire so that's even extra scarier two things I mean message today and was like what's my piece like what's the what's it called like that you're using is it like watercolor sit down this is like adding glitter without adding glitter blonde java she just left it white she started with white and gradually just faded in the middle right yeah record the process so I'll be posting that probably on Tuesday while we're driving I'm gonna have to do a top layer probably it's repelling off the sides probably what's happening just because he's on the chair no what are you what are you doing i'm getting fire oh i just did it last one you guys now he's getting mad who does like don't you do that to me yeah thanks for watching you guys I know we're not I know the mods are taking care of y'all though and with fire here you guys go over there molly stop it you please you guys go over there go I'm gonna have to do another one of these but with matte all right I don't need this anymore so I can pull up where you y'all are talking about oh uh thanks Gary move don't you jump I don't care how bad it gets um stay out um we've never buffed anything you just have to you just have to make sure you have a good dust-free zone um and a lot of the times you're the only person that's going to see any little dust or specks or oh we don't get a perfect one every time for fair if we if we have one that is too flawed like noticeable flaws then we'll use that layer as a base and sand it down so that the top layer is transparent so nothing's really wasted and thanks for saying that y'all so buffing is um a graffiti turn I guess where's that turn from I think she was just meant buffing the resin no they said buff it out as as in if it has too many flaws to buff it out I'm I'm taking it as it's buffing over something that's a graffiti you're thinking of I'm talking about like they went over it because it's that bad um we're talking about like complete cover which would be graffiti turn for buff with a glass and then inking over it again makes it look really underwatery it may be sticky because all the heat meeting glass I think I have this fire glass on my Amazon down in the description as well as the glitter glass glitter glass I mean it's so pretty let me put it in this first I mean it's literally just ultra fine shards of glass if you don't make sure resin well I highly encourage people not to scrape the sides of their bucket to get all the resin out it's a great way to get weak spots on your surface but if you mix it really well then that's fine what I'm hoping I just made the perfect amount of resin and it's not just under um what is that corkers corkster corkster if you look in the description box below the video there's a little arrow to the right if you hit that it'll drop down information of pretty much everything that we use um and that that amazon sells and if you go do what we don't care it that's where we get it yeah and if what oh nothing I don't like those random yeah like I took those other ones out because they're it's too distracting it's amazing the depth that resin gives again if you put any glitter glass in your piece before you resin it don't just run your hand over it because you will cut yourself I'll post the tutorial or the time lapse of how I did the painting part of this for Tuesday's video did you sponge it Heather wants to know did you sponge it I used a felt dauber for a part of it one of these things you don't have to buy the Tim Holtz thing you should like save money and literally just buy a sheet of felt get a wooden block a little bit of velcro staple the velcro to the block and get your felt on because I was kind of amazed at how much he charged for something so simple so simple you do you want to do the glitter glass fun shard I'll leave it actually it's probably gonna look out of place there are two pairs of gloves if you guys do this with glass to be sure you can go into the white with that and the drop a glob this is great but often like some more reason this is so fun right then we're basically done with this piece y'all yeah I'm just gonna say just do like one up there I don't even know who I am that I forget to add heat to this we'll come back around and hit it with heat again where are you gonna put that I'll leave it here shut these windows where else we can put it he's jumping he doesn't know the procedure yet stop nibbling at your brother mm-hmm thank you all right you guys whoop thanks for watching and seeing what we're up to I gotta take the boys out because they're getting super antsy antsy spancy they're gonna just shed all the hair on the piece that's fine because it's textured and whatever um check us out on facebook snapchat all the information is down below join our facebook group atd's for people um to get updates and to be connected with some awesome awesome filters and things what's happening yeah you can do that on live yeah that was just glow like a really weird haunted look anyways um so yeah I will see you guys tomorrow yep same time same place until then um be kind to one another you never know what someone's going through and we'll see y'all next time bye I said bye
