How to Make a Large Canvas Resin Art - sharing some of my best tips on how to do it right

Beautiful

[@MoonkusserArt]

Thanks 😁

What's the advantage of using canvas rather than framing out a piece of wood?

[@MoonkusserArt]

Price. I use the gallery canvas from Michaels which is heavy weight but much more affordable than a panel and no worry the wood might warp.

[@Motherofallthingz]

Have you ever done an acrylic fluid paint pour and tilt on a 36x48?

[@MoonkusserArt]

Sure did 👍🏻 Did not like the result because the details got lost on a big canvas

[@accenttraining4professiona864]

You are an amazing artist- thank you for your careful and precise explanations!

[@MoonkusserArt]

Thanks 😁

[@timothyashby2921]

Pretty awesome for sure! Your video's are very professional, thank you for sharing!!!

[@MoonkusserArt]

I appreciate that! Thank you Timothy 😁

Very inspiring Wow!🤩😍 I work with 48” X 60”. And I’m trying to find better ways to prep the back side because of the widest. So it has some challenges. It’s like a huge X on the back.

[@MoonkusserArt]

Thank you Maynold. Having a canvas with a X support would definitely be a challenge. 🤔

[@megadele65]

Gorgeous! You are so brave doing such a large canvas. But you are an inspiration to me. I’ve been watching your work for a while now and trying small experiments on my own. Maybe I will eventually get to a large canvas myself. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@MoonkusserArt]

It is always nice to know that doing these video helps others to learn, explore, and improve. Thank you for your kindness Megan 💕

Looks wonderful! Do you keep the wood in the back or can you take it out after the resin has dryed? 😊

[@MoonkusserArt]

Thanks Olivia. I remove the wood panels after 48 hours. The resin is a thicker type so it is very rigid when cured. 👍

[@patriciademendoncanascimen5772]

that painting is gourgeous!!! Is it easy to hang on wall because of it´s weight?

[@MoonkusserArt]

Thank you very much ❤️ It hangs easily. There are some wonderful wall hangers that make it simple and strong.

[@aladdinsr4567]

Amazin job.! How much resin did you use?

[@MoonkusserArt]

Thank you 😊 Over 2 gallons resin

[@altinokz]

Really very spectacular ❤❤

[@MoonkusserArt]

Thank you so much Michelle!! You are so kind to let me know ❤️

[@andrewh3730]

Wow!! So neat. I had been wondering if it was possible to do this on a large canvas. I had already thought about using wood for the backing. So it’s really neat to see you doing it this way. Thanks for sharing!!

[@MoonkusserArt]

You’re welcome Andrew. Happy to share what I have learned. 😁

[@cynthiadee7414]

Thank you so much for this video. I have the very same canvas. I want to pour a big hibiscus bloom and bud with a hummingbird. Let you know how it turns out.

[@MoonkusserArt]

That sounds terrific Cynthia 😁 I am sure it will look amazing

[@janbatin4708]

This is amazing. My jaw is dropping!!! So beautiful. 🎶💞🎶

[@MoonkusserArt]

Thank you Jan 😊💕

[@jonesynahmeen9088]

I just did a 48 x 60. It was my first project after watching videos for weeks and weeks. Some of which were yours. It turned out fantastic

[@MoonkusserArt]

That’s wonderful! Very exciting to hear. Hope you had fun along the way too 😁

[@rosebutchek]

Wow!! 😍 Such beautiful layers, and cells!!! Large canvas is definitely no easy task! Question for you… I’ve always been told to sand between layers…? And that way the epoxy has some tooth To grip to.. But you don’t do that and it turned out beautifully!! Do you ever sand before re coating? Thank you! Love love love your videos!

[@MoonkusserArt]

Thank you Rosie. 💕 If I am pouring another layer within 48 hours of the last one I do not feel the need to sand. Technically the resin is not fully cured so is able to accept the next layer and fuse together. I do sand after more than 48 hours to ensure the new layer has a scuffed surface to bond to. 👍🏻

[@rosebutchek]

@@MoonkusserArt Ahhhhh! Makes sense! Thank you so much for your reply! Can’t wait to NOT have to sand my next project! 😂🙏🏻❤️

[@sharebear1129]

Amazing! Thanks for sharing your very insightful tips. Not many others out there like you sharing your hard earned/learned very professional knowledge! I will be spending a lot of time on your channel having just discovered it!

[@MoonkusserArt]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you very much 😊

[@brittanyswartz7285]

Have you noticed yellowing after time in your paintings?

[@MoonkusserArt]

I have only had one begin yellowing. I own it and have it hanging in my kitchen where it is exposed to afternoon sunlight & reflection. The background is white so the yellowing is noticeable to me but others think it is the color of the background as the yellow tint does not make the work look badly.

[@debrajol3585]

Breathtaking is the word! I started creating large scale pieces after watching your videos (more than a year ago) and I cannot thank you enough! It’s always a pleasure to see you making art Janet 🙌💯🤩
