Ocean Resin Tutorial - layering an ocean on a cheese board. Stunning effects and colors!

This is a olive wood cheese board, I wanted to show how I do layers on a flat surface. One question I do get about resin is whether or not it can be used on a cutting board. The important thing to know about resin is that it is scratch and UV resistant, not scratch and UV proof. I do not recommend putting resin on a cutting board with the purpose of cutting on the resin. This however is a charming cheese board/tray that would be beautiful on a kitchen island, or coffee table with snacks for guests! hope you enjoy!

You are so underrated.. the amount of effort and time you give.. you are a true artist ❤️

[angelasfixations]

Genuinely appreciate that you left the oops moment with the heat gun nozzle in. So often tutorial videos don't let on that accidents *always* happen and lead beginners and intermediates alike feeling like failures instead of reassuring us that we can fix it.

[kellyjean]

I watch all sorts of resin artists, but I always come back to your videos. You are unique, creative and talented

[mikescott]

Awesome Job, I have never seen or done anything like that before but I’m going to give it a try, thanks for showing us how it’s done. So kool

[totalee]

Am I the only one who stopped breathing when the heat gun attachment fell off?😯

[karenreed]

After the last coat I thought it was going to look somewhat dull but it didn't.!!fabulous

Thank you (from the bottom of my heart) for this tutorial. I have not even purchased one product/tool/item having to do with resin yet. I still trying to get all the questions that are running around my head answered, and your tutorial answered so many. I gasped when the attachment fell but was so glad to see that the whole project was not a total loss. I often wondered how to protect the project when you have to let it sit for 24 hours - it was nice to see what you used to cover it. None of the other videos that others have made have shown this part of the process. Thank you once again.

Found this by researching realistic water for dioramas. None of the diorama creators I've watched so far, about 15 of them, have incorporated techniques you are using. This has me thinking that even more realistic effects can be achieved in dioramas by doing just that, meld effects from both disciplines. Inspiring work and thank you for sharing.

[Kavitha]

The best ever in detail tutorial, .. thank you so much for sharing ☺️

[dawnrife]

The music could go and I really wish you would talk.

[barbarahastings]

Wow this was really informative. I kept thinking you were going to ruin the foam of the ocean But it just kept getting better and better. Such attention to detail. I’m a little bit too impatient I think. Beautiful piece of work

[gourdhead]

Omg your back.. So glad your doing well. This is very cool. Love the idea of wood. I am not good at resin waves yet. I think this creation is so beautiful... I just love the layers and WOW it turned out better then I would have ever thought. Nice Job..Christy..
Thanks for my Resin As You Wish fix.. hugs xx. Glad you are better..I missed you❣

Beautiful piece! I Really enjoyed the bioluminescence aspect, as this is something I have often seen along the coast here in Norway :)
