I think many of us when we conjure a place of serenity in our minds, think of tropical waters. I want to capture that soothing translucence of aquas and blues meeting foaming waves on a golden shoreline. Resin is a demanding but exhilarating art form. It is exacting but blissful. With just an hour of worktime, I must use every hard wrought lesson to perfect the pigmented resin I pour. I use surfboard crafting pigments, India Inks, powder pigments and more for the varying hues. Then, I grab a heat-based tool, like my blow torch and manipulate the poured layers from there. The same process that gets you a gorgeously decorated surfboard is what gets you these paintings. As a former surfer, I find myself ever eager to recapture those fleeting moments in the surf in resin.
