How I created trees in my resin

For this piece I was asked to create a 'Rainforest', I wasn't given any other instructions, other than the person liked a beach artwork I had previously created and that they were happy for me to come up with something. So this is what I have come up with.
For the texture in the background, I used multipurpose filler and used my fingers to 'stipple' the effect. The trees were also constructed from the multipurpose filler. The background was painted before applying the resin. As for the foliage, potpourri was used to create the extra texture and depth.
Materials used in this project:
• MDF panel at 1220 x 610mm (9mm thick) an 18mm brace is applied to the back, to strengthen and create the illusion of the board floating off the wall.
