love the video..........I love the ocean and this was so pretty. Where do you buy the lights ?

[@ArtfulElements]

Thank you! There are several ways to do lights. One very cheap way is at the dollar store they have led bases that you can use or put into another base. I used nano leds from Woodland Scenics. If you need anything else just let me know. Have fun creating.

[@vickikitts5949]

You could put a surfer on the top surfing. 😊

[@ArtfulElements]

Yes for sure! 😄

[@rayrai888]

How do you determine how much to mix in terms of calculating volume? Based on size of the sheet? I am a beginner and am not sure if this is a project for me ...but I love it

[@maryamsi5090]

You can check Artresin calculator. It will calculate how much resin you need based on the height and width of your mold or template

[@dphil0]

Hello. I love your videos ❤️ Just wondering why you don’t wear gloves or respirator while using resin. I hate wearing all the gadgets especially the respirator so I’m hoping you know something I don’t lol

[@ArtfulElements]

Darlene Suldickas Hello! Thank you. I do wear gloves if I am going to spread it or work with it for long periods of time. As far as a respirator goes I don’t use just any resins I have been testing resins for over 30 years and some are just nasty. Strong odor etc. so I don’t use those and I work in a open area and use a fan if needed. I have allergies to acrylates and so UV resins do make my eyes swell. There are so many things that can effect us I really recommend you do what is best for you . Always be safe and I have glasses on so that does help. I buy epoxy resin from The epoxy resin store. Hope this helps.

[@coreenlyons9282]

Hi awesome video, just curious approximately how long did you let it sit till you unveiled it?? tks

[@ArtfulElements]

Thank you! It varies depending on the temp in the studio , but about 6 hours and then overnight for a finish cure. Really depends on the resin you use.

@@ArtfulElements Thank you :-)

[@wendyhryniw7576]

I just finished my 3D wave going step by step from your video, you are a great instructor, my wave turned out beautiful. I used the liquid diamonds resin however I used mica powder for my colour which turned out to be the only disappointing thing as it was not translucent like yours and looking like glass, it was opaque . On your video I couldn’t quite catch or perhaps more I couldn’t understand what you use for colour, it seemed like you were saying you use some sort of medium with colour but not alcohol ink. Could you explain to me what exactly you use because it is the look I am trying to achieve

[@ArtfulElements]

Thank you so much for your kind words! Congratulations on making your wave. As for the colors that I use to tint. I don’t use alcohol inks do to fading. I use universal tints. These are the tints used at the paint store to make you paint both oil and water based. They are highly concentrated a toothpick at a time. Most paint stores will sell to you but if not you can find them online. Micas etc can be used for shimmer but use a little at a time. My Facebook is Artful - Elements , I would love to see pictures when you can. Hope this helps . Always love to help.❤️ 🥳 Happy New Year!

[@wendyhryniw7576]

@@ArtfulElements thank you and happy new year to you as well. Thankyou for your quick reply and I now understand what you use although I never imagined you could buy them directly from paint stores. Would it be like a Home Depot or Lowe’s or a paint only store? The reason I ask is because I am Canadian and for the next month we are on total lock down meaning only curb side service.

[@ArtfulElements]

Yes usually any paint store or hardware will seek you so me. I take my small bottles in so it’s easy. Amazon has them too.

Is it just me that sees a face in the wave? Where the white is...?🧐😳😍

[@AncientArtisanStudio]

Wondering if you created your mold and wave but then use it to create a silicone mold? Just thinking future waves would perhaps be easier to unmold? I have arthritis in wrists. Might be easier for those like me.

[@ArtfulElements]

Yes Linda, I make my shaper sheet an resin waves then make alterations if needed. Then I make silicone molds of them for reproduction purpose.

[@deedeeharper4088]

Could you use foil lined with parchment paper for the shaper?

[@ArtfulElements]

Hi! Deedee, In the video I show why it is difficult to use regular foil but you could sure try. Parchment would leave your piece with a matte finish and resin does stick to it as well. You could use and aluminum disposable baking pan and a heavy duty trash bag. I can’t make any guarantees that it won’t have problems. I always had leaks when I did testing. I teach so the process have to yield great results each time. If you need anything else please fill free to ask. I wish much success.❤️

[@bonitablackburn5365]

The shine is awesome. Where did you find the sturdy sheet.

[@ArtfulElements]

Bonnie Blackburn the Shaper Sheet was I product I developed for Woodland Scenics a few years ago and the vinyl clear is table cover by the yard.

How do you measure how much resin you will need?

[@ArtfulElements]

Hello! There are a couple ways . You can just measure approximately and find the volume or you can make the wave mold and then fill with water calculating from that . Be sure to get it very dry before doing resin if you do it that way. Hope this helps.

[@ThoseOfInsanity]

Almost like a ziploc bag?

[@michaeldrake9876]

How do I know how much to sell my resin art and sculptures for

[@ArtfulElements]

My rule is there is none. When it comes to sculptures the most important is material recovery cost. Then I like to look at the area I market to and take an average for similar items. But when it’s your concept and a fresh idea you need to think about the value it brings to the potential buyers . It’s definitely not easy. Another is to find a art agent or gallery that will provide Guidance and offer you a show. If you build your brand you can charge more and gain the recognition you as an artist deserve. I have been creating all my life and I am still a work in progress. Its easy for some and for others like myself you just have to keep creating. I know this isn’t a definite answer but it’s honest . Passion to create for something greater than yourself is always a plus.❤️❤️
