Beautiful work.

Thanks for the info. I'm not even close to pieces to sell. I still have to learn how to get rid of resin nipples (drips down and under the edges), pock marks, oily residue from too much colorant, etc. These are my learning pieces while I try to find my specialty.Originally Posted by High_Plains_Drifter
I tried something new with last one I posted (red, black and white smokey effect one). With leftover colors I just dumped and smeared on extra piece. And, because it wasn't enough to make a complete piece I just started moving resin around as it was setting up. Was able to get more defined lines. The next day mixed up clear resin and poured over whole surface and then added a little more color. Right now it's 2 layers. I'm thinking about adding 3rd layer but haven't decided yet.
Anyway, just messing around I found I can manipulate the resin without being at its total mercy to move after I have decided to stop because I like the look. It's really disappointing when I don't have piece perfectly level and the design slides off as it's setting up.
Good thing is if I don't like it I can just rough up surface with sandpaper and pour new colors over to create new design.
It's really fun and can be mesmerising while doing it. Sadly, it's not the kind of art where you can walk away and think about next step. Once you mix the resin you're on a 30-45 minute time frame.

That one ↑ looks almost like something from the Hubble Space Telescope.
Well Done!
I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

Awesome piece! I really like this last one

That sounds like a great glass half empty/half full perspective.
