This lovely beach themed mixed material resin portrait is made by Kori using layering techniques of resin, beach sand, shells and cremains. The cremains are safely encased in a color fast layer of hard resin.

How It's Made

Creating resin beach art is a meticulous process that begins with selecting a wooden canvas as the base.

First, she paintswith vibrant acrylic to capture the essence of a coastal landscape on the wooden canvas, blending hues to evoke the serene beauty of sand meeting the sea.

She then carefully pours and layer pigmented resin to add depth and dimension to the piece, allowing the colors and ashes to meld organically.

Intricate details, like foamy waves and textured sandy shores are delicately crafted using various tools and mediums.

The artwork is left to cure after each stage, and then a final cure, which is a patient waiting game that ensures a flawless, glossy finish. The final result is a captivating piece that encapsulates the tranquil allure of the beach, frozen in time within layers of resin.
