The Resin Queen
========================================================
Where did I get the nickname Resin Queen? Five years ago I had my first commission for a river table through a friend. I ordered 20 gallons of resin and spent some months learning the process including two test tables. Whilst I had all of that resin sitting around in my studio I gave myself permission to play. I made large art pieces, unconventional joinery, tables with resin and wood tops, used mica powder, pigment paste, silk dye, and acrylic as additives. I am not done playing! I LOVE RESIN AND WOOD. As an artist it is so appealing and as a woodworker it is so versatile. Resin is not new to woodworking, if you haven’t tried it with success, join us in June! During this live tutorial I will be demonstrating how to use epoxy in various wood- working applications. I will be discussing the following: What types of epoxy I use and why, Different types of color additives and effects, How to prep the wood before using epoxy, How to prepare a mold for projects such as river tables, How to fill knot holes in wood, Tips learned from years of making mistakes, Personal protective equipment.
