 I know we're a little early y'all, but we got a lot of orders to put out since we did that Ultra awesome like Star Wars sale the other day I'm still getting you guys set up with a good vantage point so bear with bear with Hey y'all hey y'all hey y'all so I am Doing this 30-inch round As a Christmas present I know it But we is right here letting me know that he is very upset with being ignored as I know it There's so mistreat. I know I know I agree Well, let me see what I can do about that. Hold on He's very Upset He is not getting all of the attention right now, but he will be fine Okay, now I can see what y'all are saying So Trying to get all in frame so As usual I'm gonna use art coats. I know Bowie is so bright Roxanne he gets all of the attention and he is a fabulous assistant. I just I'm pretty sure I don't have kids but I've heard that they always want attention when you're doing something and Bowie is No No exception He's sleeping until I start to do a video and then he wants all of the attention all of the time Um, I could probably ship these colors to India so the colors I'm gonna use today are titanium white This midnight blue blue moon Bondi blue Liquid chrome I carry all of those on the website except for the liquid chrome and I'm gonna try dusting some blue Sparkle bling it as well the color I spray painted My base is a color by the loop and the color is Okay, it says breast 208. I Don't know when you spray paint make sure you're in a well ventilated area. I mean you should do that with resin anyways, but Particularly with spray paint. Don't do it next to like an open flame Etc. We're respirator So I'm just adding a little bit more spray paint down and I'm gonna like blow this over the surface Oh, there's like pixie particles All over the space Also You shouldn't ever breathe in Micah's It's gonna be a do as I say not as I do moment. Well, thanks Roxanne So now I've got a little bit of shimmer Definitely looks better in person than it does online, but I just wanted like a starburst of shimmer Just add a little bit extra depth I'm mixed up 28 ounces. This is a 30 inch round which you can find on our website as well Probably won't need all of these ounces But you never know when you're in like a creating mood you kind of want to Not have to stop and mix more resins sometimes One two three four I'm not gonna mix the chrome into the resin. I'm gonna just add that on top extra. Hey Clara. Hey y'all hail hail hail I haven't used blue moon in a while, but it's definitely one of my all-time favorite dry pastes It's something that's very unique about the resin art pigments is that the The colors are so rich and the sparkle is just Extra it's not a shimmer Or maybe you can call it an extreme shimmer. It's not a glitter anyways Y'all know Since I am on the phone today filming I can give you true color instantly which is awesome. I Always overload my pigments standard rule of thumb is 10% but with powders. I like to add a little bit more because When you're manipulating everything around sometimes Powders tend to go Like they'll dilute a little bit Actually, they want to make two These Bond eyes this tint is really amazing in that you can add just a little bit or a lot and you'll change the depth of the color I'm with somewhat of a glutton. So I'm an all-in type of gal But that can end up being wasteful because you know pace can only go so opaque Tints can only get so deep in color. They'll never be opaque. They'll always be transparent Gorgeous Mary Jane. I was my pleasure to get that box off to you in time. I really appreciate that Yeah, how are you doing? So these are both the same but I added a little bit more into this one. So the color is a little bit deeper Sorry for that little earthquake But we've got to be in full full-on zoomie mode in a second Yep, so you can get all of these Products on my website artists till death comm except for The Chrome that I'm going to be using closer to the end This is midnight blue It's very similar to a blue moon But it's just a little bit different of a sparkle. Y'all, but we is doing circles around the place right now My little toddler Bondi blue is 100% Since she kind of ran out of the something Turquoise to use that's my new favorite Just resin pigment where I saw and I put it in a warm bath and it's still solid. What can I do? Put it a little bit into Like put your heat gun over it just a little bit and see if it Liquefies if it doesn't just shoot me a text or an email and I'll just send you a new one So this one is titanium white my sister's messaging me Barf as a Tiffany's I didn't know that one did solidify but I've got those in stock, so just let me know if putting it under a heat gun doesn't work and we'll We'll fix it for you Thank You Clara Well, thank you for showing up y'all Good to see you Debbie looks like thank you Andrea Um, I need to get something. Oh, yeah, my torch that I'll grab it in a minute So this dance move I like to call greasing the pan and ultimately It just makes my tinted resin Flow over the base more easily Much like if you were to grease a pan And you can do this in a thin layer or a thicker layer just keep in mind that Resin can only really hold itself Like around an eighth inch on a surface without like breaking that surface tension and flowing off And that's for like a thicker viscosity Resin thinner ones. It's a lot less. Okay, so I don't like to waste any resin So I try to get as much out of it as possible Sorry about that noise, I do have my window open So I gotta grab a torch That was a nice quick journey all right Amazing how much more sparkly that bling it gets after having Resin on top of it. This particular client isn't like full-on sparkle fan, but isn't against sparklies Just a little elegant shimmer and that's kind of what bling it is Just a little bit of elegant shimmer It is not as cold here as it usually is today, so My resin isn't being that particular and that What would be a good Comparison like cold honey or cold syrup Molasses if you will it's not being that bad But it isn't being Very giving either so if you have run into that issue if you're in like colder climate You can always make sure your bottles are Really tightly like the caps are really tightly put on and then put them in like just higher than a warm hot water bath For like 15 minutes and that will Then it out just a little bit. Keep in mind though that the warmer you get your resin Um The more it can affect your working time I'm running my fingers through it like this because I'm realizing that the bling it's Like for what didn't stick to the spray paint is moving Depending on where my hands are so it's like flowing with the resin So I'm kind of giving it a little bit of a design and that's definitely something gonna explore in the future So that looks really neat Give me a second. I'll move the camera so you can see I guess I should just move this You can kind of see where it's like ripply a little bit But it's not really ripply. It just appears to be so So don't have a rag here. So that's fine Um It does look a little bit like blue diamond doesn't it. All right, so let's start applying some colors And if I had more time, I would probably let this set up completely and then Add a layer on top of it like the next design layer, but I Don't have that kind of time so We're just gonna have to go on with it The ripples should stay and actually the longer you would if you were to let this set Like another hour and then run your fingers through it it'd be more likely to stay harder lines, but We'll see we'll see So I don't really have a lot of like I'm not really sure where I'm going with this piece because I didn't get that much In terms of feedback on what it is That they were looking for So this is kind of gonna be like Kind of one of the old-school type pours where you just put all the resin down All over it's not gonna be a negative space Which is almost uncomfortable for me since I've done so many negative space pieces lately Andrea definitely you'd want to use like less heat so that you can be sure that the ripples kind of stay My only notes were blue and silver So I'm trying to build A piece off of that amount of information Which is kind of nice to not have to like Do something specific And just let the colors go where they may and then adjust them As you continue your piece It's been a long time Because you know when I do My pieces like my way It's hardly ever that it's usually that I have to Demo something or Help someone out with something which all are perfectly awesome fine things It's just nice to put resin down and See what it's gonna do and then take it from there which Granted is a lot of my method anyways I'm gonna try to do a full coverage piece without making it what I would consider busy We'll see We will see Putting just a little bit of heat down so that it Will lend itself to being manipulated a little easier If I had a heat gun over here, I probably use it just because it would Um do this a lot quicker But they're all in the other room so Work with what you got sometimes as I'm doing this I'm just picking out any hairs or Uh foreign creatures that may have hit the resin because the window is open So a lot of things are probably blowing in at this point in time, which is fine Because I'm gonna top coat it with Dynan code later Thank you Don What kind of ink was the liquid you use that was um Bondi blue and it is available on our website Hey JJ Um I have diamond coat on our website as well Jennifer if someone could link that for me it'd be super awesome So this isn't meant to be an ocean, but I'm gonna put a little bit of Oceany type things in there anyways So let's tilt this um and see what we're working with The resin's on a thicker viscosity right now type situation because Um of the weather here, so it's blowing a lot more slowly If you do use a torch to create any kind of design elements just Be careful not to scorch your resin Which can happen fairly easily Just don't leave any amount of heat on your resin for too long I'm gonna have to plug in I'm gonna have to grab a heat gun I have a blow dryer No, why would it be plugged in? Holster for my everything At this point, I don't think there's a way for me to make this not oceany, but also Fun if you click down in the description box of any videos, there'll be an amazon link And thank you Doris way ahead of me So I don't think there's any way at this point of not making this Ocean-esque But that's fine too because She's an ocean person So i'm just heating this area right here because i'm gonna manipulate this line And if I like preheat it so many cooking terms if I preheat it some It'll flow more easily and I will have to do so much with the torch And that'll keep the risk lower of me scorching this resin Which is Way bonus Yeah, that chameleon color just take a while to come in Even when it's not christmas top three colors of all time ever or on my website or that are blue or from a certain brand So i'm gonna let this area rest a little bit. I don't want to overheat it Okay, and in the meantime i'm gonna work another area Probably This one right here. Let's maybe work it into this way so it doesn't look like it's all flowing in the same direction Try to bring it back before it hits That line over there I'm working on large pieces um Try to recommend people work in smaller areas Just because it can get overwhelming top three favorite colors um Okay, so jude it. It is titanium white from just resin top three favorite colors I like dark turquoise wild jasmine And basically any white They're all kind of the same and I think with those you can build a great piece working those colors together Or independent of each other So it's rested a little bit, but it's still moving some so Probably not ready to be Worked quite yet. So i'm just gonna wait a second The fur babies are doing amazing boi is um I'm sure up to no good. He's in his ball pit and kujo is taking a nap on the couch I'll show you guys what they're up to Towards the end of the Feed Oh bright gold see that's another Or 007 Oh, yeah, michelle. You can use a torch. Just be careful with your flame. You don't want to get in a situation where You scorch your resin more slowly I don't know why it mattered to me though since i'm Hitting that area with heat again anyways I went into this piece thinking I wanted large patches of solid color So that's why i'm keeping Some in there. I don't want it to end up too busy and I wasn't really going for ocean But if it shined up there, it's fine This is kind of just a play piece, you know Right, you got overloaded joe Jennifer that's really common and you can always shoot me a message and i'm happy to help you out Uh-oh Next round of zoomies boi said oh goodness I'm getting extra crazy I think I want to move this area up into This part a little bit And that may be too pinpointing Thank you tia Oh, the dog park is super muddy right now You guys haven't checked out tia marie's artwork. She is amazing Highly recommended. Okay, so when I have that handy dandy blower I know it beans. I know it Boys be sweet. Oh, I'm so glad it finally made it gale Did you look at it gale? How do you like it? You've always wondered how I found my calling in resin so um Once upon a time long long time ago I decided I wanted to try resin art And well actually was acrylic and so I contacted all these awesome artists and asked them for help and tips and direction You know just can you tell me one thing you wish you had known when you first started that would have saved you a whole bunch of time and headache And everybody gave me this proprietary vs answer So I decided I was going to figure it out myself And then teach everybody and so then I became fully dedicated to resin art merely To figure it out on my own and kind of stick it to all the people that Were being selfish in a way and I'm not saying that everyone should share all of their Like I figured this out and I'm gonna do it and I'm not telling anyone secrets, but like I was looking for something so easy as to brace the back of a canvas because it's gonna dip or Take the back of your canvases because it's kind of a pain afterwards or Read all the directions because When they say mix it thoroughly they mean it and if you don't your piece isn't gonna set up like I didn't want to know all the secrets. I just wanted to know something helpful and so because People were kind of jerks about it. I decided I was gonna Be exactly the opposite And now I work every day to find new techniques and like New ways to incorporate resin or To incorporate other art forms with resin To make something unique and I want to like make a statement that You don't have to keep secrets to be successful in art. You can share all of the knowledge and still be successful This is already an intimidating medium, you know, there's no reason to Keep a secret that's gonna hinder someone from exploring a great medium I don't know. That's what I think. Hey y'all. Hey y'all Sounds great Jen I miss those first few videos y'all made you guys have come a long way in a short amount of time. Love you guys Thank you. Tia we um I guess doing it every day kind of forces you to travel a long way in a short amount of time So now I'm just trying to tie in all of my favorite spots to less Desirable areas or areas that needed some work done. That's all I'm doing right now On top of getting my hair and resin, but that's common Where's my blower thing? Y'all excuse me for One moment. I'm gonna prime my blower thing like we're gonna have to continue Using our face Yes, I don't know What my blower thing is Oh, well, that's under here So it's definitely areas that need a lot of work as in motion I'm just gonna tip the scales a little bit with the torch On certain areas to get them to do what I want them to do I like that and I like this when I did it But now I'm thinking it's a little out of place. You know what I mean y'all It's kind of setting back my Design as a whole So I may just add some whatever I have left which would be some Bondi Hey, Carrie. I think I just sent out your order It's wavy, but it's It's not What I think I want it to do So we're just gonna have to adjust So what I'm gonna do is Pull it this way that way I have this and then I'll have one out this way And I think I'll like it better at that point. Oh, thanks you guys I still have to find a way to add silver because that was specific request I'm just gonna heat all out through here so that that's the way all of this flows So I can be specific about how it goes I'm just tilting all of this part off That I'm not the biggest fan of and then I'm I'm thinning it in the areas that I want it to curve past so that it gives that same movement That I like in an area Up top now. I'm just gonna let it slide back in on itself. I have it just a little Off the table is not exactly level I'm gonna thin in areas where I want some cells to pop up Because ultimately that's what brings your cells into the piece is a thinning of resin I'm not sure why I just pushed that back in that way when it was what I was trying to do was Pull it off this way We'll see I may have to swipe through it I miss do it So I may just actually I'll do this I'm going to mix in Nope that one is stuck forever. I'm gonna take some of my bondi blue Add some blue moon to it I can get it open because sticky I'm gonna add some blue moon Whoops. That was way too much Try to use this stick when you can I'm just gonna add some more of that to kind of balance that out I didn't have any more clear resin left. So I just overloaded some blue moon into some of my What was that bondi that should tie in This Again, this is resin. So all of that is in theory He gets in the swiping paper. I usually don't swipe a piece unless I have stone coat But because it's hard for me to get my face where it needs to be I'm gonna utilize the swiping tricks Just to tie in certain areas Am I going live on Christmas? I'll do my best Another thing that I like about using swipe paper is that when you use it with powders It kind of like rearranges how they're laying And you can like create designs Just in the powder The only thing about that is when you have a design it has to start from somewhere. So Now you can see kind of the start area So I'm going to have to thin that out And get it moving just a little bit to have it make sense Look where it is Same with this right here. I'm going to use a heat gun. So I have the reach Since that's kind of the center of the piece But I kind of I mean exactly the center I want it to kind of make sense a little bit But was that a bowie here or a moon here? So certain areas of this look kind of busy and certain areas look More calm I don't know if I like it looking like there's a hole right here Just to close the gap as it were I cracked myself up I'm trying to tell myself that I'll like it more once I have the silver on it It's not a bad looking piece. It's just A lot Going on Makes me feel better when waves are involved. Thank you, gin So I'm going to let all of this white tilt to the edge roll real quick Then I'm going to tilt it back on but the white will adhere kind of what adhere it'll stick to the edge a little bit It'll hold on So when I tilt it back forward It'll switch All of the cells so crazy how When you do tilts like that and you use a powder It kind of pushes the um The mica particles so that they make their own like glowing design I'll show you guys in just a second Yes, I'm gonna do montana chrome Luckily, this resin gives me a forever working time. So I don't have to stress about Am I gonna have enough to finish the piece in terms of like It's setting up on me, which I've had happen with other brands before It's very stressful Oh, you silly. What are you doing? So you can use alcohol inks to tint resin just be forewarned That alcohol inks are not light fast and resin so Odds are pretty high that your colors will fade over time I'm just going to give you an updated look where we're at on this piece if I can get the phone down So this is what I was talking about with the particles of mica shifting So they kind of pushed forward When I was doing that last tilt do you see all these little bloop bloop That's where the resin was getting ahead of me Hi beansie You sure are being good now sure are being good now You sure are being good now. What did you get into? Why is your coat all like this? All right Okay, I'm gonna do The silver I'm gonna be using Chrome by Montana. Okay. This is the Molotow liquid chrome It is now all pixie covered because um, I touched it And also I was using bling at the beginning of this video So you have shaken it up really well I'm just gonna put some into this And see it looks like a melted mirror I'm gonna use one of these like shish kebab skewers to Place it where I want it Ideally, we'll see if it works. Okay. It's staying on the stick pretty well Which is awesome is this technique to kind of break up any areas that are too solid We'll see I'm just gonna turn it on the side So that it's not quite as uniform The stuff dries super quick once it's at the top of the resin so So it looks very like So I need something To kind of counteract that like uniformity right there So I think I'm just gonna Also, I picked up a hair on my way Doing that one. Thank you, Andrea Typically on my regular pieces. I wouldn't do anything crossways and then long ways I feel like that kind of interrupts the flow of the eye across the piece but this isn't supposed to be anything and Anytime someone commissions me to do something that I kind of A little bit more free reign with It's when I try to do some experimentation I wonder what would happen Those are like possible last words But put some of a color on top of this I like it. I'm gonna leave it. I'll give you guys a close-up of that in a minute So usually I will pour the gold out and let What I feel like is the reason why the gold kind of grows a little bit I'll let that soak into some paper And I think this has it in it too a little bit So maybe we'll just pour some out and I'll let whatever Wants to soak into this paper It doesn't look like a whole lot, but we'll see in a second how if it grows still this looks like um I'm not sure what but I like it We're in with the idea of adding some silver leaf to this piece too And I still might we'll see I'll make it do that's one of my favorite things to say if you guys don't know make it do Because it's kind of like all-encompassing just make it do What you want it to do All right, I think layer one Is done with this piece. I'm gonna give you guys a little bit of a close-up show whoop y'all Jeff would have been so mad if I drop this into resin So this is the chrome It doesn't even want to register What are you doing? You have the doomies? You have the doomies? Okay Yeah, it's not going to register the chrome I'll have to do it in another video Are there so you can see like Our atd logo reflecting back. It's probably my favorite part of the piece Over here But you know sometimes you can do a piece and it may not be your favorite and then you take a break and come back and check it out and then you Realize that you actually do like it or it settles a bit and then you realize you like it after kind of just does what it's gonna do So that's the chrome under The bondi blue it looks kind of like a shadow of It's a chrome. Oh, so here's what happened when you get around the other side Here's what happens When I put that bondi over the Chrome it kind of like What's the word? I almost said star blasted. That's not right It kind of just exploded What it was And just pushed it aside And I think it's a neat look So this is where i'm gonna leave layer one part one of this commission that i'm gonna have to finish manana but yeah i'm digging it so far i just Just need to calm it down a bit. I think But i'll save that for Layer two Anyways, you guys be kind of one another you never know what someone's going through and we'll see you guys Next time. Bye Mooses bye
