 fix this angle Sounds good What's up everybody happy Monday. Hope you all found all of the eggs yesterday It was amazing and your Monday has been as A wonderful as you guys are Our friend Tiffany approved of Of our most recent sample piece Which is a this one Super heavy because I've put many a coat on it What's up at Mac Christie Nancy Shelley what is up? So this one was approved Therefore I Always like to do the piece just one more time to ensure my ability to Replicate it So that's what I'm gonna do today on this one the piece that I'm pouring actually on on is Sorry about the ruckus This red is not the same red we use the first time but And I just just got to use what you got right right and so I'm gonna set up our handy-dandy mixer to mix while we are Spray painting The countertop Nope the sample so how much do we need if we're gonna do like four ounces of square foot Let's just round up to be safe Let's just do Like 20 ounces. I think that'll be a good estimate If you don't know I am using stone coat countertops art coat for the sample piece because There is a lot of white in What will ultimately be this finish and Uh the stone coat art coat is the best And in my very humble not expert Opinion at preventing and warding off any amber ring for yellowing So I have Resin to my this together. I'm trying to pull out the little button This is the I stoio Mixing Resin mixer it's down in the description box I have under this video if you click the Amazon link, it'll have the I stoio mixer. I don't know if they have the stand Along with it now, but one can hope also if you're a dog in the background I have two and Their dad just went to the store. So they're left to their own devices, which means They're just gonna bark So as per use if you use anything Be in a well ventilated space Yeah, this red is way brighter than the last one, but It's just a placeholder So I don't have a respirator on but that is because You wouldn't be able to hear me that well if I had one on So hold off all of your judgments Judy Hey Kathy car. How are you doing? That's fancy. Well, it will be fancy like in just a minute Hey Why don't you like go chew on this, huh? So in a minute, I will show you the First examples of This piece that we did The client wanted aquas and red Actually, initially it was red and white and I said I'm not doing a candy cane Countertop and then we kind of met in the middle Kind of this palette any time I do a countertop. I always under paint like this Under painting always brings out a lot of depth and under painting with complementary colors Or colors opposite on the color wheel will bring out the vibrancy in The presenting colors so for this exact in it for example is going to be Mostly white and then aqua and then a little bit of red for an afterthought So you can kind of see some red through But it's pretty faint and I actually just released a blog on my website artist till that comm Going over Some concepts behind color theory and why using Accenting or complementary colors Will kind of give your painting or countertop or floor or whatever a little bit of extra pizzazz At least they're playing right? This could be a finish all on its own So many jokes Oh, I'm gonna take it to the next Nextest level. What's up, Christie? So hello everyone that's here if you haven't Subscribed to my channel yet. I hope you do so It doesn't cost anything and it really Helps my channel to grow and become more relevant in the The YouTube space All right, I'm gonna switch this to three minutes To finish the mixing and this should be dry by then I'm gonna go ahead and go over the colors. I'm gonna use and then also Will list them as well Some of my handy-dandy patent already in existence at this point Stir sticks these are great because they're reusable I'm just gonna scrape the edge of this Before I go over the colors so that that can go ahead and be Incorporating in my resin If you've never mixed resin before I have some great beginner videos, but also I go over things pretty Pretty beginner level in terms of explanations So if you're not a beginner, I mean if you are a beginner You don't have to leave just hang out with us And if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask We have a great group here and we love to answer any and all questions Hey Shannon and new Waverly That sounds like a beautiful place. Let me get some cups So the colors I'm gonna use on this piece or I almost just fell you probably wouldn't have seen it But now you know I'm supposed to spell The colors we're gonna use are The same as what we did on our last sample piece but in case you didn't see that video I'm going to List them Yo, I almost was tripped at the same spot. We have puppy gates everywhere. Okay, so I'm going to be using shooting star or Milky Way from resin art or color art I'm going to use Bermuda Bay from just resin I'm going to use Tiffany or breakfast at Tiffany's from just resin titanium white from just resin and almond From just resin and probably some liquid copper That is not from just resin it's by actually Montana All right. I have all my stir sticks My resin is almost completely mixed up at this point Can you guys hear the puppies in the background? Hamas enough. I'm just happy they're playing, you know For a minute, I thought Bowie was not going to be interested He's doing good being a big a big brother. Hey Libby So Claire TG I just realized I didn't ship your Thing thing so I'll be shipping that Tonight or in the morning tutors coming over tonight to ship orders So if you guys have orders in And you haven't gotten a notification yet today tutor will be here momentarily to assist in orders So yeah, okay, let's give this one more stir to make sure all of our sides are scraped If you've never mixed up resin before It's always important to make sure you scrape your sides and The bottom of your cup and the stir stick because See if I can okay there Do you see? You see right in here some slight almost looks like clear stretch marks in the resin You see I'm right in here. I hope you can see them anyways There's like swirls. It looks like Something spinning, but it's not That is not incorporated resin So your part a and part B are not fully mixed together And that's kind of the whole goal when you mix your part a and part B. You need to make sure everything's fully completely Incorporated okay. She is barking with her mouth full At Bowie Which I'm kind of thankful for because she's a lot louder when she doesn't have a chewy in her mouth anyways So now that our resin is completely mixed Apologies if you can hear the puppy in the background Come on campus leave it trying to find her something that she can chew on she has a chewy in her mouth Okay, I'm done worrying All right, so let's start mixing colors Thank you Donna for reminding people to Leave some thumbs up for me It really helps my channel when you guys do that. Okay, so we have a resin and Now we have our cups so we want Mostly White and translucent white we do translucent to build depth And then I'm actually gonna mix We'll do translucent white opaque white Milky Way and Then we're actually just gonna use these little medicine cups to mix our other colors because the client wants a mostly white and In order to not waste And to keep myself in check on what I need to be mixing. I Just don't make that much of My other colors because then I'll want to I want to use them kind of like if you go to a buffet And you get a big plate you're gonna want to fill it instead of just getting a smaller plate and then going back for Seconds and for me sometimes thirds If we use everything on the plate Or in the small cup and we need more of it So this particular client is not afraid of sparkle So we're gonna use more shooting star or Milky Way than we otherwise would so it's a little bit more cloudy than We usually go for when we're doing a piece like this But that's okay because that's what she's into We're gonna do some What is this breakfast at Tiffany's? The rest of the colors. I'm gonna use our pastes. So they have kind of a pudding-y Texture they're very thick Another red thing about using paste over Micas is that using Flat Micas or Micas that don't have a shimmer to them is a real pain But you can use a paste that has no shimmer sparkle to it and it's just The color is way better in my opinion very humble opinion. Oh I think This man's dad's home She's very excited about it She waited till you left and then was very hype Okay, so we're gonna use a translucent white It's translucent as then you can see through it. It's kind of a skin milky kind of shade Um, she may want one of your any treat that's in there because she's been very hype They're in the chewy box. All right. I'm gonna shut this window because People that drive in Dallas like to be loud when I'm live Okay, and our second white is gonna be an opaque white, which means you cannot see through it It looks like that. I'm watching you lady. I forgot I didn't mix these up Let's mix these other colors up if you guys would like To join a class on color theory and how to build a palette and check out my latest blog on my website or Sign up for a class where I teach color theory. I'm also teaching a value-added class at Ronda's or RK3's upcoming Coral class not this month next month and I'll be going over color theory harmonies different kind of color schemes palettes Etc. That color just mixes in so effortlessly Fun fact, I used to not be able to say the word effortlessly Um, there's a lot of effort involved Okay, so we do have six ounces left of clear resin that I'm going to use Probably to make translucent white because This is a big board. This is an 18 by 36 board. We have these on our website artist till death comm So yeah Okay, first things first. Let's do some underpainting. I'm gonna use the Bermuda Bay from just resin to do this I like to underpaint with resin because When you start to blend and meld out your other colors This kind of gets mixed in and so it's kind of just a Super easy way to build depth Without actually doing that much I'm gonna do some white underpainting as well And be kind of more crazy with the white because it's less noticeable Actually almost looks Translucent I'm gonna have to mix more white into it. Thank you Clara The value-added class I'm doing down at Rhonda's is a half day and the second half is a Clara resin dye class All right, that's enough underpainting because I will go Crazy with it All right, we're gonna start with translucent white. We're gonna so randomly just kind of Add that around And while I go I'm gonna be mixing up More translucent white just in the cup that I have and so Since I didn't start out with the same big cup of white My translucent whites are gonna kind of vary in depth tone and hue But that is okay because that is just another way to create really great depth Also, trust the process how it looks right now is not how it's going to look It's going to look great. It currently looks a hot mess But we're here for hot mess success, right? So I'm gonna put this milky way out and just random places Making sure to get some in all of the places that there's a little bit of red so that can shine through a bit And now we can just go ahead and blend out this Crazy background painting that we have going on Definitely looks like a scary piece When I look up at the camera angle All right, so right now I'm just skimming over the top of the piece The more pressure I add the more color is going to get picked up Which is great because then I can kind of Move where that color is But if you don't want to move any of your undertones then just lightly skim across the top Not trying to mix anything Not trying to make any secondary colors Ultimately, I'm just trying to make sure there's no dry spot left On the surface And whatever under painting magic happens while I'm doing this Just happens I'm really trying not to let the aquas take over Because that's kind of one of the only notes that Tiffany gave me Was that she wanted more White But that was just a repeat note So I'm trying to keep everything On the lighter side And not add too much of the aquas For those who haven't attended one of Erica's classes, you have a blast and learn so much. Oh, thank you so so much And yes, my hot mess success shirts Are very popular because That's kind of my mo It's a hot mess It's a hot mess. It's a hot mess and then all of a sudden You look at it and you're like Crushed it nailed it success All right, let me get the rest Hot mess success is it just Just is Well, if you say so, but mostly because I'm a hot mess and sometimes I have successful pieces translucent white now It looks kind of crazy There's a lot of red popping through We're not going to be able to see most of that as we get further into the pour I'm going to mix up a dirty pour basting it in a lot of the translucent white Just a swizzle of the Tiffany's abalone Swizzle the Bermuda opaque white The order you put these in Really doesn't matter all these colors will play well together So you don't really have to concern yourself too much with the separation I'm going to give a good stir for interest Pull up some of the colors that sink And now I'm going to decide where I want to put this dirty pour I'm not I'm basically how I Decide where where I'm going to do this is I put it over areas that I'm not that much a fan of Then after you empty that Mix up a new one Basically, I'm just adding marbled ribbons through The background painting that we did I like that phrase marbled ribbons a little bit more translucent white Just adding swizzles as we go Not that much. What? Tiffany I feel like swizzle is a unit of measure Hey gale. Have you been? I had a stick in here. No, I do happen to it Oh, it's right next to the one I just sat down and sometimes I like to add just accent lines with the remainder of my pour Or you add the dirty pour Uh, I can't remember Tiffany I should note for myself when I watch this later that I should have made more resin Things are getting slim But that's okay next dirty pour Definitely need something happening up here also coming this way also I oftentimes will flip or turn over my Dirty pours to kind of get my ribbon from one side to the other Let me bring you in for a close-up to kind of Give you a visual of what I just said so on this one I noticed a little bit of the aqua coming out right here And I wanted it on top. So right here I flipped the cup over So that it's more present On the top. I hope that makes sense Dave, I don't know if you were here for the beginning of this, but I Ran out of the reds the dark red spray paint that I based the last one on And so I had to use a brighter red so it's coming through a lot more aggressively than I would have liked at this point I can Confidently say that I can make The sample piece that was approved I can make it again So At this point since I already have an approved piece I already know I can remake it. I can kind of add a little bit Of extra stuff I added that to break up some of the red showing through And so I'm going to have to add a couple more Lines of just the Bermuda Bay To make it make sense So I'm just going along the existing design Obviously Tiffany that's a lot of really contrasting aqua and If that is not That wasn't on the approved piece so Don't freak out because it's there on this one That's our accountant This almond color has got to be one of my favorites. It's so rich So beautiful Sorry if I get distracted while I'm pouring y'all Okay You trust me anyways All right, I do have some whites left over some going to add some Larger sections of the whites and all of this resin still has to self level It hasn't done any of its own Melding that will happen Between now and when it's fully cured All I'm doing right now is putting the color Next to the ones I want them next to Ultimately that's kind of all you can control with resin Is where the color is And even then it's probably gonna move. I just love working with resin. All right Let's hit with some heat and see what we got Last time I used this torch It wasn't cute it kind of blew back at me When you're just popping bubbles You can use a flame like this a torch or a heat gun A lot of times when we do countertops, I'll use an open flame like this because It turns into a flamethrower Okay A lot of times I'll use Just a flame like that instead of I'll use that instead of a heat gun because it's just heat Whereas a heat gun is going to try to push a little bit It's definitely got a lot going on and is not suitable for all kitchen countertops Bear in mind once this goes to scale And is on a larger surface It's also Going to look different. It'll be ultimately a little bit less busy because It's scaled up when it's on an actual countertop This is going to change A lot My surface is not exactly level Let me give you guys a flyover So this is one of the dirty pours and these are just colors that we put next to each other Still has all the sparkle in it. I didn't add my copper One minute finish this flyover and then we're going to do The copper accents And then class will be dismissed So the approved piece is actually this one You see how it all of this ran and shifted So that's why it's very striated But if I had all opaque colors, you wouldn't have been able to see Any of that movement Also, it's worth noting no one comes to me for Regular marble or anything that can be found in nature No one comes to me for can I get a nice elegant simple white Carrera? People come to me for the loud the artistic the sparkly borderline gaudy finishes If you want amethyst marble come to me If you want soapstone I'm not your guy unless you want like Soapstone with pizzazz then I can be your guy tutor Okay, so if you guys have never been here for this part I always Use a liquid floating gold on my surface to give a little bit extra dimension I'll be showing you what it looks like in a second But I'm letting the propellant soak out of my liquid copper I Don't put it in the actual drinkable side of this Dixie cup because they're usually wax lined and that will prevent any of this Soaking in To the cup I want the propellant to soak out See the dark that's in there when I do this that's that's all propellant I just want the pigment It has to come with propellant or else it won't come out of a spray can And that's to come with propellant in the little bottles that I have Or else it would just dry up in the bottle But having the propellant in there will make The lines that I draw kind of bloom stretch and ultimately could crack So I'm trying to work out all the propellant so that the line just stays how and where I want it to be Hope that makes sense So now that I have some mixed in I'm going to find some resin that is just on the edge and do a roadside test and a roadside test just means I'm testing my This Looks pretty good. Okay. It didn't bloom too much. So I am going to mix into it Uh, just a little bit of clear resin To further help it just hold on to itself and not split and crack and craze I'm just going to pick up a little bit from This spillover that has white and aqua in it, but it'll be fine I just put a little bit there's definitely More paint to resin in this mixture Now I'm going to add These lines Where I see fit and that could be Going through some of the almond like this It could also be just breaking up Something that's a little bit too soft has too much just light colors going on Like this And I know I already know that you're probably looking at your screen like I don't Understand I don't see what it is. You're trying to show me Nothing is looking awesome. Well Give me a second As soon as I change the As I change the angle of the camera, you'll be able to see it So don't freak out ever if you are doing a piece and you drop pigment where you didn't want it Where you didn't expect it I'm here to tell you that oftentimes Accidents end up being my favorite part areas that I'm like I should scrape that off a lot of times will become my favorite Bit I think people sometimes are too Quick to judge their own work And if they just let it live to like tomorrow when you have like fresh eyes Oz are you're gonna like what you created At least you'll like it probably more than When you walked away from it statistically speaking You know, I sound so smart when I say statistically and then I try it again and It comes out as cystically All right, I'm almost done with this part. So it won't be boring for much longer And I do believe that Tudor is here Um, if you ordered from my shop lately, you know that I am short on a lot of things But also I have all companies on order the next to be delivered should be color obsession Canvas has found Tudor. All right, so let's see what we have shall we Sorry about that Okay So this is the floating copper that I added I like to add just veins that Come up and hit when the light is a certain way Like this one and also you can see that the white has sunk and it's already settled and flowed this way So it's rolling over that aqua since we have translucent everywhere. It's creating even more depth in the piece Yeah, the majority of that order Melissa is tense So I have a full restock of tents coming Unfortunately color obsession is One that takes a little bit longer than the others to come in So you can barely see the red peeking through But the red next to the aqua will make the aqua look brighter. For example This aqua and this aqua are the same But in different lights, they look different colors because one is next to the red I don't like how that looked. So I just had to mess it up Ooh Well, come on over mess Emma. So yeah I love it. I know it's a lot of Motion and it's busier than what a lot of people would prefer but you know what? um Take my recipe take it home and Come up with your own version of this Thank you claire for listing the colors. Thank you mods for being on troll patrol And thank you everyone for coming in and watching today I hope you learned something or entertained or otherwise educated And now I'll show you puppies There's one.
