I've never done an ocean or wave piece but I've done resin pieces on canvases. I'd suggest cleaning up the edges before they cure. That's one of the things I need to work on. Beautiful waves!

[heavenssoapofisrael]

Thanks, really good, I'll try this

[marlenedean]

Thank you for your video, i have watched it a number of times. I love your beautiful creation ❤

THANK YOU!!!! I CANNOT MASTER THE INLET WHITE LACING, WHILE KEEPING THE WHITE EDGE!!!! I did just receive my jr white and cannot wait to try!! It has always just blurred out. I will try and let it sit to a thicker state and hope this works. Also, you are the first one who has said a low heat, but high speed to blow out. Now if I can just get the angle right to leave the edge and blow out to the fine lacing! You definitely have a ew stalker fan!!!

Oh wow thanks for the tip about the white resin and letting it sit because I’m pouring the white resin and blowing it immediately and it’s just like blowing water so I’m going to try letting it sit like you recommended. Great video thank you so much

[chelseawagner]

Excellent video. Sort and to the point. And I would comment on the miss perception that one needs to sand epoxy between coats if it gets hard. That really only applies for engineered applications. It is in the design of epoxy to stick quite well to just about anything. I have also found from sanding and polishing epoxy that even the fastest setting epoxy takes a minimum of three days to reach ninety five percent hardness and a week to ten days to fully cure. I suggest that you do a test by dripping some drops on some hardened epoxy and let that set a week and see if you can pop it off with a razor knife. Unless your epoxy has a substantial wax agent in it, it will not likely separate. And if it has the wax that can be removed with soap and water or a dewaxer in lew of sanding The wax agent is what makes resin shiny.

You just saved me soo much grief. Thank you very much!

[d.debellis]

Best tutorial -you get right to it ! my question is 1)put down a clear layer of resin then a line of white ? 2) Is the white applied directly or mix it with clear resin first then apply it ?
3). Can resin sit bet layers or must I make a new batch for every wave? I’m
Doing this wrong I think !

[rendaowe]

Just subscribed. I love your detailed information on the different techniques. That’s a new one! Thank you for your time and knowledge.

[pegberthold]

Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing your techniques and equally important, the materials used. I am very excited about trying this myself as a fledgling self-taught art student (in my 70's...never too late.) You have inspired me with great enthusiasm, and I cannot amply express what this will mean for me. I have wanted to attempt a dimensional nautical painting, but didn't know how to go about it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I noticed that you ran the white line directly over the clear resin line. I'll try that. My resin refuses to form the bubble foam look. I've tried using the lighter torch as well, with no luck.

Hey, loved the video and your Techniques. I have tried my hands on the ocean waves but failed every time. How thick does the white pigment hAve to be to form lacings? I wait till it becomes like sugar syrup consistency, but the rest of the poured resin on the board thickens too and it becomes very hard to move the resin. It would simply spread on the entire board like clouds (no lacing or cells). What am I missing here please?

[ronnietelowitz]

I can’t get the cells and lacing I’m using Castin Craft opaque pigment. Do I mix this with resin like you do with the other color’s Thanks for any help you can give me

[heidicook]

Can you tell me the brand of heat gun?

[jonathanveliz]

Great job, congratulations, one question: how much time did you wait when putting the white line and blowing it?

[bennydsa]

Thanks for the tip ...that we have to wait for 15 mins before pouring .... which includes even white pigment that too has to be mixed together and wait for 15 mins ... correct?

[stevestone]

Love your videos especially a fellow Aussie. Im a bit disheartened! I have all the gear and not much idea... ive only started a week or so. My predicament is its winter here in country Victoria and im making these in my garden shed... The resin does take a bit longer to dry fully... I can get the Blues and clear sorted on my board but my white is a disaster.. when ever i try a wave its all thin and wishy washy... my first resin i bought it all caught fire but i have a really good one now with no odour... can you please give me a link or list as to all your colours you use for wave art? and any advice you think i need? Im practicing on small cutting boards until i get it right! thanks in advance...Stevie x

[angelageronimi]

Michelle, it is so beatiful. The White, is only paint ? Thank you for your answer

[hotchillichick]

This is beautiful, and you explain very well. Just wondering though, if it’s left more than 24 hours and has to be sanded, what do you use? And how much sanding is needed?

[amalalkhaliafa]

Hey thanks for the video i tray to do it but I don’t get the cells on the waves?! Can you help me why ?!
