How To Make Resin Geode Art For Beginners

Resin geode art is made by placing crushed glass, crystals and decorative stones alongside tinted resin to recreate the look of natural rock formations. Using pigments and mica powder, you can create your own resin geodes in any color palette you wish, adding decorative elements like glitter and metallic paint for a luxurious finish.
Artist Shilpi Patel walks us through her step-by-step process for creating a custom piece of geode art. If color and sparkle are your thing, you're going to love learning how to create resin geodes! Once you have the basics mastered, there's no limit to what resin geode designs you can create for coasters, wall art, sculptures, table tops and more.
Enjoy!

You both did such a wonderful job! I have learned a lot and I now feel I can try one on my own, of course with you to by my side with this video. I am so surprised how you achieved the final look of the geode. Being a beginner, I was way off thinking I could do it by looking at the finished product! I was definitely wrong about that! I have everything I need and more besides to complete this beautiful work of art! You are a fantastic teacher!

[@Artresin]

Kathleen, this is exactly what we hope to accomplish when we team up with artists to share their techniques! Shilpi is a great teacher and makes it easy for us to incorporate her techniques into our own geode creations :) Good luck and have fun!

I love this tutorial! I started out thinking it was just going to be a commercial for the resin but I actually learned a lot! I often see a lot clips of people working on tiny bits of their pieces on IG but nothing so thorough. Very inspirational! I have been wanting to try it! Thank you for making this video for free!! Y’all did great!! 💖🙏🏼😊🌹

[@carmenhastings9875]

I absolutely loved both these pieces and would love to introduce my middle school art students to this. I love how you naturally came across things you didn’t like, I don’t like to say “mistakes” in art bc it is such an amazing an individual process, and was able to show us how to “fix/change” those things. What an amazing instructional video this is! Thank you both. I also loved how the colors were on different ends of the spectrum as well. 👍🏾 👍🏾

[@kimbershark]

Like Bob Ross says "happy mistakes" 😊

[@pinkyhotmessx69]

That's a huge liability

[@DeLayneJoseph1104]

What an amazing gift that would be, to give your students the opportunity to make such personalized and unique works of art! I have complete faith that you would look into the safest products to use and keep your students safe while they create their works of beauty. I wish I could find an adult class to go to for this. I Love beautiful rocks and the shiny crystals that you can find inside, but to be able to create them yourself..... PERFECT and FUN!! Go for it! Don't forget to take lots of pictures from each class to look back on. Fun art, fun memories and maybe some new, fun ideas. I wish I could be the fly on the wall. 😊
