Making Epoxy Resin Art: Step-By-Step Instructions

Step 1:

Prepare your resin painting area

You'll need plenty of space for your resin painting board, as well as extra room for the resin to drip off the sides.

Step 2:

Choose any surface for your resin art

Several surfaces can be used for epoxy art, such as canvases, artboards, tiles, records, and more.

Step 3:

Collect your artwork resin, colors, mixing utensils, and safety supplies.

Resin is mixed in such a way that it adheres to the painting's surface. 

Step 4:

Calculate the amount of resin you need to cover your artwork surface

You can use a resin volume calculator, which will tell you how much resin you'll need to combine.

Step 5:

Prepare the back of your painting artwork surface

When the resin drips off the side of your painting, it collects under the surface. Making this phase simpler by using a sheet of painters' tape that can be removed later.

Step 6:

Place cups underneath your resin painting surface

Allow the resin to drip off the side, your resin painting surface should be elevated off your painting table. The drips will cause puddles around the edges of your Epoxy Art if you don't lift the surface.

Step 7:

Use a specific level to make sure it is evenly balanced

Your resin can travel and transfer more easily to the low side of your surface isn't level. This results in an uneven finish on your surface.

Step 8:

Mix the resin and hardener as per the manufacturer directions

Every resin is specific. You'll need to know how much of each component to combine by weight or volume. 

 

Step 9:

Apply the epoxy resin to your art surface

There are many methods for pouring colored resin onto your board, but the simplest is to pour the colors onto your surface and then watch them blend.

Step 10:

Apply some heat

Use a heat gun for this move. It removes bubbles and helps to shift the resin around to make some interesting designs.

Step 11:

Cover your epoxy art

Most artwork resins will be 90% cured in 24 hours to keep dust at bay, but a complete cure will take seven days.
