 I hope you guys are having an awesome day. We have been super busy here in the studio and it is time for our 6 p.m. live. I hope we have a lot of people that are newcomers and old comers. You know what I mean? You're kids and you're newcomers. Words are hard. Anyways, so today what we're going to be doing is, what's up Shelley? We're turning some old wooden these, what are they called? TV trays into amazing. And to do that we're going to use resin. So I am just finishing up mixing our resin. Hello everyone. Hello, hello. From bland to outstanding. From bland to outstanding. Thanks, Gene. Just to give you a reference of what color they were, these are the bottom parts. So they used to be this wooden color. Brownish wooden. And now we're going to turn this one into white and black and silver marble-ish. We taped the back. It was darker than this. I actually like this color, but it was darker than this. Tape the back. And then this one is going to be white and blue. White blues and blues. Blues and more blues. Look at this. You may have to stir that up. I just opened that one. Ooh, with chalk paint? That sounds awesome. So Jeff is going to show you and tell you about what colors we're going to use today. I don't know what color this is. This is electric? That is dragon, I believe. Dragon. This is like the blues of blues. The blues of blues? Yeah. If you were to ask other blue colors like, hey, what's a really good blue? They'd be like, oh, you got a mess with dragon. Definitely got a mess with dragon. I don't want to. I'm just holding it in front of your face. That one is Bonaire blue. Ooh, that is nice. Very nice blue here. Should we just use both whites for whites, right? Both whites. We're going to put interference in there. Well, I brought an interference just in case you wanted to. Just in case you wanted to interference. And we got these at Walmart for $11 each. Yeah. These TV trays were $11 at Walmart when we got them. And today they're getting an upgrade. So if you guys missed it, this shimmery awesome blue is called dragon blue. Hold on. Someone very impressive with a loud car just drove by. Dragon blue by Just Resin. I have all of these colors in stock. We're doing black, just the regular black, blackest black from Just Resin. May have to hit that with a little bit of heat because that one has been in my personal stock for a while. This light, no shimmer blue is Bonaire from Color Obsession. And then we're also going to be using titanium from Just Resin. Actually, I think we're not going to use titanium. We're going to use top cell white from Color Passion. I just have to run and grab it real quick. Now let's do base cell. They can't hear you. Do a light skim coat of clear just for the colors over it. So you can still see this and this color. So it will be a definite contrast of color. Can you guys hear him okay? I can imagine, but do you want to put the resin in first? Plop it. Okay, good. Everybody can hear everybody. So Jeff is mixing up a black from Just Resin. And I'm actually not sure what we're doing. So this one is going to be the black, white, and apparently a dot of blue. Because I have to wipe it off. This one's going to be black, white, and silver. This one's going to be blues, blues, and white, and blue, and some blue. All right. Feel strongly one way or the other about which one you work on. So it doesn't take a lot of these pigments at all to get a really great color. Hello, hello, everybody. Thank you guys for tuning in and seeing what we're up to. If you haven't subscribed yet, please do so. Leave us a thumb, tell us where you're from. Okay, so blue. We're going to do, okay, wait. We're going to need some white, too. We're not going to have enough. Well, that's a lot of blue. I guess that's going to be the main color. Don't just make a whole bunch of full cups. Because remember, if we're not going to use it, why are we going to mix it? I just started doing it. So how fun is that blue? It's so vibrant. So then that and that is over here. And we're going to put white over on this side or not? How many things in my head? That's why I can never decide on how to apply stuff. We are going to use an interference blue on this one. I do want them to be a similar, like you put a color, you know, colors next to each other and then low that color over it. You know, I like that look. So let's mix up some interference. We're going to put this in white. It's a blue interference. This surface can only handle so many ounces. So if we're also doing white. What about the clear? Well, I figured we would use just a little bit of that for you want clear clear as well. Yeah, I just want to put clear down. So then do that. It's going to be great. Like I'm going to do that. Do how we do. I want to still be able to see that some of this. Okay. Put this in here. Stop stressing. It's just resin. Oh, base cell. So I'm mixing up a translucent white. You can see here that we mixed some of the base cell in there, but you can still see a little bit of that tan color through. So it's a little bit skin milky. And then we're going to make an opaque version of that as well to mix this silver, which I think can go in both. Just always said was blue and light blue. Okay. So we'll just do silver in this one. Let me show you guys the silver in case you forgot how amazing it is. What? So should I just sprinkle this like we do? Yeah. Just a skim coat. The whole thing or just some parts? I would do skim all over. Yeah. Look at that amazing sparkle. I can't even focus on the life of this silver shimmer. This is silver shimmer from color pack. Nope. Color obsession. It's relatively new. It can't even focus on it because the sparkle is so amazing. It's relatively new. I have some in stock right now on artisttilldeath.com. Mix them into this resin and see what we're looking like. This is like, it's like aluminum, but also with a sparkle to it. It's not just a shimmer. I love it. What do you think about this? This is currently my favorite silver out of all the silvers right now. And I have some in stock if you guys are in the market for some of this. All right. So Jeff is adding the skim coat. Creasing the pan. We would be using our trowel sticks, but since it's such a thin coat, we are only using our hands. Prep for the gallery show is going. We went and surveyed the place yesterday. I think, yep, yesterday. It's going well. Going well. Well, thank you the dainty doer. I really appreciate that. Melissa said I just used that silver shimmer on a tray and grinder set I made. And it was amazingly beautiful. It was with that green glittery pigment from just resin. Ooh, that sounds amazing. Okay, so we have just a skim coat of, I hope that window is not too loud being open, you guys. Let me know. So we have a skim coat of our resin down on the white surface and on the black surface. And it's about time to start adding color. Yeah. I'm scared. Okay. That is an air compressor because airbrush. We're not going to be doing that on this one, but airbrush. So I am going to do on this one because the notes for these were black, white and silver on this one and blues, blues and some light blues. And then I think blue on this one. Some blues. Okay. Some blues. And so what I'm going to do on this one, because Jeff likes the look of using the heat gun to kind of blow out the design and make that fanned, scalloped look. I'm going to do lines of color. I know you said something about marble, but that fanned look doesn't really say marble. So which way are we going to go with this? Maybe just kind of blur it. Blur it and blur it so I'm over. Okay. We'll see. Are you wanting to do marble or are you wanting to do the fanned outlook with the heat gun? Both. I don't know if that's going to look right, but okay. We'll go with it. Remember. It's only resin. We can paint right over it. We can. I just don't want you to get upset if it doesn't look like you're thinking. So like Jeff said, it's only resin. Oh, okay. My tripod. It's only resin. Hey, Massimo. So what I'm going to start with on the one I'm mostly black. And then I'm going to work in a little bit of this translucent white and a diagonal striation. And then I'm going to add an opaque white. And I'm going to let Jeff and burp. Burp it together. Yep. That's my plan. And then I'm going to add the silver accents after the fact. And on yours. I should probably start. Sure. Start. I'm going to add lines with the whites. It's only resin. I'm just going to kind of skim and meld this black kind of into the clear background that we have. And the reason why I didn't just do line, line, line, line of different color is because I want some of the black to kind of work with the translucent whites. To give that marble look because when you look at marble, there's depth, there's little bits of deeper colors showing through other colors. So I'll just do some lines real quick. We'll meld those out. We'll see what we got. I melded the original with my right hand. So I'm going to come in with my left hand. Not that it super matters because I'm getting black on my other hand as well. So Bea, what's your thought process over there? I don't have one. Okay. I'm just trying to put this down and not think about it. If I think about it too much, I will. That's really true with resin. You can't overthink it. And Jeff has been in an airbrush mindset, which is trying to make something look like something specific. Marble. The lips template are on the website. Yes. So, so now I have my rough marble look. I'm going to be tilting it slightly to get some movements. Actually, I'm going to add a little bit more white to my translucent white here. So I have a more opaque color. So I'm going to take what I already have and add the same amount of white that I already did. More white. And the idea with this part is I don't want to be able to see through it. I can still see through it a little bit on that top edge right there. So I'm going to add a little bit more white. The underneath, where you can see it, just totally left line. We're going to super tilt that way anyways. Yeah. So I'm going to take this opaque white and just run some lines just to give a nice start contrast. How's your super tilt going? Going. This guy up. And I'm going to let those white lines sink a little bit. And while I'm letting those white sink, I'm going to talk with Jeff about what he's working on. And you can see here the scallop look that he really was going for right here. If you want to, that's a dark blue. That's a phthalo. If you want to drop that into one of the colors. Yeah. What Jeff is doing right now is adding some into his, what are you going to add that to? Bonaire or dragon? Dragon. So you're going to add it to the dragon blue to darken the color so that there's a greater contrast. Because you really want to have a contrast. You want to have something super light or something more on the dark side to really draw the eye better. Oh, look at that. Did we put silver in there yet? No, no you haven't. Thank you guys so much for watching what we're doing today. Making marble looks our way. This is for my son for his birthday. Oh yeah. This is for Austin for his birthday. Also we have some black left if you want to like hella deepen it. That's not quite dark enough. So I'm just reading over the comments. You're so welcome for the fast shipping. I do my best to get orders out. Same day that they're put in. I'm working on building back the stock up and I really appreciate y'all's patience while we do that. Really sold a lot at a time that I wasn't prepared. And now we're building back our inventory. We've got orders out with all of the companies that we carry that we're just waiting on those imports to come in. I'm thinking about doing it. It's like a transparent color. It's a little bit translucent, yeah. I'm thinking about doing a 12 day advent calendar for the holiday season. What do you guys think about that? I'm just adding just a little sparkle splash pinch of black to deepen his blue. I've ever used this technique for cabinet drawer or for fronts of kitchen cabinets. I actually have done marble cabinet drawers before on that big build that we were working on in Houston. The texture geode countertop, we did the back splash, the main countertop, the guest house countertop, the island and the drawer fronts on everything. And it works really well. It looks really nice. Just make sure you use a really good bonding primer. We use XIM bonding primer. Just run your finger through it and tilt it. All right, now I'm going to add this super awesome, super sparkly silver shimmer from Color of Session available at artistilldeath.com. I think I'm just going to run it next to these white lines. And then we're going to give it a tilt. I got too crazy and dribbled. But that's fine. Don't stress out when things like that happen. It's only resin and everything is fixable with this over. I can't even, I can't even, I can't wait to give you guys a close-up. May I heat that? Mine just got a little bit too, I put too much heat on it. So in something like this we do need to mind our edges because it has a rollover. And so the design can flow over the edge whereas we don't usually worry about that. On these we're going to have to. Backwards hat, he means business. So I'm going to heat it in just some areas to help it flow better. And you can see already some of the colors rolling over the other colors because we use translucent. And that's really going to increase the depth of the piece. I think I like that just like that. I'm going to take these gloves off and give you guys an up-close look at this one. And then we're going to focus in on Jeff's. I'm going to have to take a flash off because of that amazing this. It just looks like marble. So here you can see the translucent running over the other colors and giving it that fade. And that's what's giving it extra depth. So it looks like it's layers when really it's just one. I'm going to try to turn the flash back on. I want you guys to see the awesome of the silver. Well, you can see some of the awesome. Most of it is just not going to be seen. Flash on. Love this like subtle hints right here. Like kind of ghost lines. Let's see what Jeff's talking about. Sorry, I'll tilt it back the other way. Just want to get that there stretch. Yeah. So Jenny, you're actually right. That silver doesn't sink like some of the other ones. It's not a heavy silver. It is a very light silver. Yeah. The silver is strictly for resin. Thank you, Lisa. That looks really good. All this action right here. Will you get your edges so that it can roll over? They're all over. There's like breaks right here. Are we going to be doing UTC on these? I don't know. I thought about it. So since I just went over all of my edges a second ago, I'm going to now just make sure that everything that's rolling over the side kind of teams up to where I put the silver and just putting a little bit of silver on the edge so it makes sense to wipe down my edge at all the design elements on. Looks good on the backside. Just the rest of it. I like it. That looks good. Yours. My mind, yours. Yours looks super good, B. It looks very amateur. I don't think so. Well, I think it looks good. Everybody online thinks it looks good. Now, we do have a fan running in our shop always because Bowie, so we have hair floating around. So we are going to have to do some babysitting duties to get the hairs that have landed in the piece. That's okay. Small price to pay. Just always have some handy dandy tweezers at the ready. And I'm pretty sure I've been shedding more than Bowie lately. Else, just me. Cool. Jeff also recently redid our dust-free zone. I could have sworn I saw your face. Pro tip, if you heat your bubbles and they don't move, it's a hair. So, Blue did take over, but he said light blues and blues and then some more blues and then a couple blues. And then that's what that is. I think I want to do that. A paint. You want to make it greener. It's up here. I'm going to put it over there. To the right. Here's one now. Here you go. I'm going to go ahead and take this bad boy to the dust-free zone because I don't want any residuals like a pizza. Particular technique. Technique that Jeff is doing. You don't want to use too much spray paint. You don't want to make it like, I'm just telling people. Yeah, you don't want it to be like solid. You want it to be a little bit darker than fogged. And you always want to use gloss. Make sure you shake your paint really well so it comes out not exclusively propellant. And always use gloss. And then when you add alcohol, don't put too much because it will move after you're done spritzing it. So I would leave that and just see what happens. If you add too much, it'll end up clouding a little bit like this. Also, this is also when Rhonda does the Italian drip that I have not yet mastered because of my face. Also, if you put spray paint on top of the alcohol, you're just going to dilute your spray paint and it's not going to look like you want it to. So we only use 91% isopropyl alcohol. If you decide that you don't like how it looks and add more spray paint and do it again, then you need to wait till the alcohol you have on evaporates. Having too much alcohol, you can. Having too much alcohol on your surface. That is so crazy trying to like. If it doesn't move when you want it to, add some heat in the areas. We don't want to use fire, babe. Well, no, in like fire. In another 30 seconds, the alcohol will have dissipated. It does look kind of ocean-y, doesn't it? I thought you were going to add more spray paint. I want to take away some of this. So if you don't want some of the spray paint down that you already have, you can just chop through it, swipe through it, but don't just keep adding alcohol. We're just adding it to the other one, too. A one, too. Claire says Mikey likes it. Looks cool. I think we should do matte on both of them. Yeah. So I think adding this spray paint on this is a great idea. I like it. I like the movement. You can see the alcohol reacting to the metallic pigments like it would if you used powder. A lot of people don't know about the pastes, babe. I'm just making it very textured. What's going to happen? You're going to cancel it out. You're going to make that texture not... I'm trying to get rid of some of it. Oh, I thought you said you were adding more texture. I thought that's what that does. It just keeps on separating the paint. You can just separate it to make it on the paint. You can see all of the texture you created from spray paint right here. That's what I'm going to do here. Where this big splotch is of alcohol. That will end up evaporating. It's already mostly gone at this point. But if for some reason you get a low divot that doesn't go away... Oh, there's one. I got something to eat in my finger. So in this area... You can see the alcohol took it all the way to the substrate. And to fix it, you just need to get rid of that surface tension. A little devil, do ya? And that will end up filling in. Because of the presence of bubbles. You guys see anything else I need to work on? I didn't learn that trick from Stone Coat. So once this cures, we'll be doing a flood coat. And then we'll be doing UTC. So I'm going to show you guys... Everyone's saying walk away. So I'm going to take you guys and show you the upgraded dust free zone. All the way in the dark. Right there. I'm going to turn the light on. So there she blows. That is just a shower curtain on the front. This is a 24 by 48 by, I don't know how tall, shelving unit. Looks like this. And then we lined everything with heavy plastic. And then Jeff put a shower curtain on the front. And that is what we put our artwork in. That's too big for our bun pan rack. Because we usually do pieces that are larger than the 15 inches that the bun pan rack is. And if you don't know, this is Artist Till Death's shop. And while it does look like we're at a lot of stuff online, we actually have a lot of stuff. We just are waiting on the more popular colors to come back in. But I agree. When you look at it online, it looks like we have no stock. But that's not true. We got all that resin in. Coming in hot. Coming in hot with a TV tray. All right, you guys, thank you so, so much for watching and seeing what we're up to today. We will be live early tomorrow. Okay, well, look at this piece Jeff did of my face. You can barely see that hint of pink and it's everything. I love it so much. I might buy it myself. Anyways, you guys hope you learned something or were educated or entertained in some way. And yeah, I hope you have an awesome night. We'll see you guys live tomorrow. Till then be kind to one another because you never know what someone's going through. Remember to write it down so you can see it and say it out loud so you can hear it. Everything is possible. Hey, I have to come up with something new. Or remember we do the test. So you don't have to change it now. You look like you're about to go tattoo somebody or just clean up. All right, you guys have an awesome night. We'll see you guys tomorrow. Bye.
