This was the perfect tutorial for me. I have 20 pieces to resin and was literally scared to death to get started. You two are my new art heroes! All of my work is being donated to raise funds for our local Humane Society and I wanted beautiful finishes on them. Thanks again for making a video that is easy to follow (each step) and leaves nothing out.
@@MasseArtStudio I was curious, do you have a video on using ppe while using epoxy resin? Do yall have a safety video as well in regards to how to safely use epoxy resin?
@@MasseArtStudio Hello, I am using "Let's Resin" brand, and it also has a 1 to 1 ratio mixing, will this calculator also work for that brand? Also, it says you needed 9 ounces in total product, and you mentioned you needed 4oz hardener, and 4 oz resin.....that would equal to 8oz not 9oz? Just wanting to make sure I understand, because it says for my size canvas that I need 7oz.....thank you for the reply!
This was an extremely thorough walkthrough. I've seen several resin videos and have a little experience with resining myself but this taught me a few new tricks. Great job and thanks for posting this.
Thank you Lee. This was a perfect video that I’ve been waiting for so long. You’re an excellent teacher. You made it simple, easy. You took the fear out of resining. Your camera angle when you were spreading the resin was perfect. Thank you to both of you.
This was TERRIFIC! I loved your presentation, your instruction and love for the art. I'm feeling more confident and encouraged because my first experience was disappointing. Thanks!
Lee & Jeremy Oh my goodness! I’m giving you both a big fat hug! Lee you did a fantastic job explaining everything and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Love you guys!
Thank you so much My husband has resined for me a few times , and he said that’s the best Information he’s ever gotten on this product and how. To use it We are both so grateful THANK YOU SOO MUCH!!
Hi Lee & Jeremy,glad you mentioned respirator. I don't use resin without one. Often too cold where I live to resin outside. Also because of cold climate,I let resin bottle warm up in a warm water bath before pouring it. I have found that helps.Glad that you say I only need 1/2 for 2nd coat as I've been doing same amount which works out expensive on my budget. Thank you both.
Hi my lovely laddo's. Thank you for this video. I've learnt that if I'm going to resin a piece, it needs to be on good canvas. I cheat and pour onto mdf or ply wood. I love the pieces you have just done, the resin really makes a big difference. I love you guys, you always share so as to make us better artists. Thank you.xx
Thanks so much! I'm one who just 'does' and figures out the better way sometimes. How seriously you treat safety with resin is SO important. Burn out one's lungs is no joke. Great work guys!
If it wasn't for you I would probably have made a mess of this. Probably not perfect but pretty darn close. Thanks for making it easier than I thought it would be Thanks for making it easier than I thought it would be..Cyd
Thank you so much for your tutorial. I've been afraid to resin anything, you've given me the confidence that I can do it and it can come out looking beautiful.
One more note, Gorgeous, Gorgeous, Gorgeous, end product ❤🎉❤ I'm also a native Texan from San Antonio, lived in Richardson for about 4 yrs, now living in Virginia Beach VA. & love the star of Texas behind you & you gave me idea of what to do w/my star. Thank You ❤
Lee & Jeremy, this was so helpful. I just used resin for the first time. As expected, it was not perfect as I am learning. I also made sure to begin in pieces not fit to sell. I did 95% well on a canvas however not doing well on tiny pieces like ornaments. I almost tossed an 8 x 8 as it has to divots but you saved it by making this video. Now I will sand and second coat it! Thank you!!!
Hello Lee & Jeremy, I’ve been doing resin on canvases and ceramic tiles for coasters. What Ive noticed sometimes on the acrylic painted ceramic tiles…. is that when I pour resin on the tile the resin will kind off divert around a small section of tile. When I see this happening i will push more resin over to fill in that exposed section of tile. Sometimes i need to do this 4-5 times. I wipe down my tiles before I start. Why does this happen?
@@nauniesbootcampcooking6777 if you use silicone in your paint it can cause that. I haven't had that issue since I stopped using silicone if I'm going to resin it.
Well you boys have helped me once again! I did a beautiful museum wrapped piece that is just screaming for a resin finish BUT I’ve been terrified of ruining the painting! Thank you so so very much for calming my fears and teaching me all the do’s and dont’s!! Much love!! Treesie
Thank you so much for all this info. I have only been paint pouring for about 3 weeks and decided I wanted to resin the coasters I have been painting. When we did the first couple of coasters and paintings the resin has been pulling back towards the centre. I am going to get some of the isopropyl alcohol and clean them down before each time I resin. Also seeing how to repair the previous ones that have pulled in along the top edge of the sides. You have definitely given me some hope back and encouragement to carry on. My husband and myself were feeling so deflated over this issue, but tomorrow we will tackle the repairs first then carry on with the rest. 👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩❣️❣️❣️
Thank you Thank you Thank you Both of you. This is a very detailed video teaching from beginning to end. Assuming nothing and teaching everything. I've learned more watching this video than I have in a long time. You two are fantastic. ❤️
Thank you for this video! I’m one of those people that has wanted to try resin for a while but have been scared to mess up my paintings. Your step by step instructions are very clear and I appreciate you demonstrating how to fix it if you get a bubble or something on the dried piece. The process seems a lot easier than I thought it would be. I think I’ll give it a try this weekend! Thank you guys! Beautiful paintings as well!
Thank you so much for sharing this. It’s like you were reading my mind. I’ve been wanting to try to resin a piece. You have inspired me to give it a go. 🥰
Hi, my loves. Yes, I'm going to be one of THOSE people. Art Resin is a by volume resin, meaning you should not be measuring by weight. The hardner is heavier than the resin and therefore would measure as less volume resulting in unequal parts. Whew, that was a mouthful! I would imagine that in smaller quantities it doesn't make THAT much difference, but it can cause the resin to not cure correctly. OK, I'll step down from my soapbox now. Great video, very informative and as always, lots of fun. Love to both of my boys, xoxoxoxoox.
Hey love. You are absolutely right. But you are right again when you say that because of the small quantities it doesn’t make any difference. For the tens of paintings I have out resin on with this product not one has failed. 😊 But it is a good point none the less.
I had exactly the same question but couldn’t figure out how to word it properly so I deleted it. I was totally confused by the weighing. Anyway, nice tutorial but maybe you could add an edit to let ppl know on larger pieces you need to be more accurate. Just a suggestion.
I learned so much from this turtorial. I just did my first resin coat recently and have some places on it that needs fixed. You just showed me how to fix it. I think, no, I know I had too much resin on it. So, thank thank you so much for showing me how to fix it. What is funny is the painting looks very much like the first one you showed being resined. Much love to you both. 💕😊💕🤗💕
@@chilltunesdunne5061 They spray water on the back of the canvas so that when it dries the canvas is tight like a drum. It helps to keep the resin from pooling.
@@joallawestervelt6918 thank you. Do I spray it on when the canvass is dry. I'm new to pouring but love it and loved your video. My colours always go flat when they dry. I use modge podge glue mixed with paint and water.
WHAT A WONDERFUL TEACHER YOU ARE!! AS THE PREVIOUS COMMENTER I ALSO PLAN TO DONATE ALL OF MY WORK TO RAISE FUNDS FOR THE A.S.P.C.A. I DISCOVERED THIS ACRYLIC POURING ART FORM LAST YEAR THROUGH U TUBE. I WILL BE 80 DEC.21 & I ALWAYS KNEW THERE WAS AN ARTIST IN ME. CAN'T DRAW ~~~BUT I'VE ALWAYS HAD COLORS SWIMMING IN MY BRAIN. I TELL ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN TO WATCH A.P. VIDIO'S ~~~THEY ARE SO RELAXING & INSPIRATIONAL.LOVE U 2 GUYS
This video was such a lifesaver. I’ve followed it to the T but every time I resin I get loads of pits over the canvas. I’m not sure how to get rid of these. Ive tried wiping the canvas softly with surgical spirit before doing the resin but that doesn’t completely fix it. I’m sure it’s something to do with the silicone in the paint potentially. Every tip in this video is fantastic. Thank you.
It’s absolutely the silicone. When you use silicone you have to wash it off the canvas or use isolation layers. Please search how to resin over a silicone canvas to see some tips
Hey Guys! Thank you so much for making this video and sharing it with us! Jeremy-you were right about the notebook😁 I admit I feel intimidated by the thought of applying varnish or resin for the same reasons everyone does. And yet I love how finishing your painting takes it to a whole new level. Lee-you took the fear factor out of the process and made it much less intimidating! I feel much more confident that this is a step I can now do. I’m wondering if you have ever varnished any of your paintings (with spray or using a brush) and which finishing process do you prefer? Thank you so very much for sharing this with us! Be happy and well!
Hi Melissa! We have used both and definitely prefer the resin over a spray varnish. The resin just finishes it off so perfectly we just prefer that one.
Lee and Jeremy, thank you so much for this fabulous tutorial, you covered every aspect of the process. The finished piece is outstanding. Sorry I missed this premier, but crazy weekend with all the other and I felt guilty leaving my hubby so much had to finally tear myself away and sit and have a beer with him. lol. I usually watch all your premieres it just that I am there but not chatting I just say hi to everyone. You guys are amazing, love all your videos, have watched you from the first one. Wish I could go to the fluid art experience but coming from Canada makes it a little more complicated.
I appreciate you guys so much. I want to make sure you know that always. This was a fantastic tutorial. So good. You have alleviated my major resining fears. I will say I almost had a frickin' heart attack when you hit that canvas with the sand paper!
You two are so great and so wonderful to listen to whether painting or doing a tutorial! You should consider doing audio books!💙💙 Thanks so much for doing this video on resin. I feel so much more confident moving forward. Great content! Your pieces are gorgeous and your chatter is the best ever!!Thanks so much! Be well!❤️
Hi Guys it is great that you have gone through this process for people wanting to do their own resin, or to help anyone with issues. However, there is one very important aspect with the mixing of the resin in particular the ratio component that is not quite correct. It is why some artist use 2 cups to measure the fluid amount instead of weight. The actual ratio mix for art resin and mainly others (check manufacturers instruction) is a 1:1 part ratio ( some are 2:1). This ratio recommendation is based on Fluid volume and not a percentage or weight proportion ratio. As you are aware a 2 part resin mix there is alway one part that is thicker (higher density) than the other part. What happens when you mix by weight is you will have more fluid ounce or grams of the runnier part in your cup than the thicker part. This means you are not using a 1:1 fluid vol ratio. What should happen is you empty both bottles of the resin at the time. However if you mix on your scale by weight your bottle of the runnier part will empty first as you will be using more. Whilst some brands of resin can handle this small measurement error, some do not plus you will have leftover of one part. Also when you use a 2:1 part ratio the measurement error can have issues in curing. I learned this the hard way when I had issues and was using scales and weights to measure. I also had many frustrated conversations with manufacturers until we identified the problem of not using a fluid ratio measurement. Which means you use a fluid measuring cup to measure your equal parts preferably in 2 separate cup as they should be as exact as possible. This comment is only meant to help you. I have watched you from your beginning and know you are always eager to learn and get tips in your journey. Regards
You are so correct. But, being that we are using such small quantities of resin mixing it 1:1 ratio has never impacted the finished product. As Lee said though you should always follow the manufacturers instructions that come with the resin.
Are you psychic? This totally happened to me, today. After an hour the edges got uncovered with resin. Like it pooled in the center and pulled the edges in
Thank you very much for this video! I didn't even get bored or lose interest. I usually do after 10-15 minutes. I have never finished a painting because I was too scared! Not anymore, thanks to you!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have used resin with very few perfect outcomes and actually some of best paintings are sitting, waiting to be fixed. After this tutorial I feel confident that I can fix them. Thank you for being so detailed!
This is fantastic information. I am so grateful, because I just did my first resin over a painting and was HORRIFIED to find that it didn't stick in some spots, despite my careful cleaning. I ended up with divots and bare spots and darned near cried. So now I know I can fix it and I'm much happier. Thank you!
@@MasseArtStudio FIVE layers later, it is complete. Not as perfect as yours, but in a state I can live with. I think I may be resin challenged. I'm going to keep pouring until I've got it dialed in. Thank you for the encouragement!
Thank you so much! My first resin was okay...but I'm going to go back and clean it up now that I know I can. Best video so far on resin! Just so thankful for this video!
L💞💞E your video,I like the fact that you actually walked us through and taught step by step and you were talking as you were working on the project,You weren't boring like other tutorials,I like your presentations so much I started following you,Thank you for the lesson,I been wanting to learn how to work with resin for a while,But couldn't find a tutorial that kept me interested instead of bore me, I'm so happy I found you.
WOW you solved the mystery for me - I have never even attempted this so now I feel I might have the confidence to do so... the journey begins. Thank you
Hey you both wonderful cute guys Thank you so much for sharing this video. Helped so much. Now I want to try this by myself. My resin is standing for months in my home cause I didn't know exactly how to use it. I will give it a try now. Thanks a lot.
Thank you so much for the tutorial! As a beginner to the acrylic art journey, it is so incredibly helpful for tutorials like this... at no cost!! I'm a beginner trying to find my way and it's frustrating to come across tutorials that want me to sign up at a cost just to see how to resin my piece. So thank you thank you for this instructional video!! ❤️❤️
This is the most helpful resin video I’ve ever seen! It RESINated 😉 with me more than anything I’ve watched. Thank you, thank you!! New favorite channel 😍🎨💖
Came here for 1 answer to a resin question left with so many more answers to questions I didn’t know I had. Lol. Thanks. Great informative video! Love you guys!
I am so glad that I came across this today. I've been wanting to use resin but was afraid of the fumes. Well this is awesome news about the resin you use. Thank you so much
Best tutorial on resin EVER !!! Thank you so much. I was so afraid to use resin on my artwork but now, after watching your video, I will do it with confidence ! Because I know how to fix it. Merci from Montréal :)
You two are super detailed in everything. I stopped painting for awhile but just started again and I learned so much from the both of you! Thank you so very much! Keep up the great work🌷
I subscribed in August of last year when you did your very first video. You gave confidence to beginning pour painters. I realized when I saw this live that I haven't watched since late last year.😲 I watched a few others tonight and I am amazed by how much you have grown in just a year with both your channel and your paintings!! They are stunning! I now have my notifications set! Congratulations to you both!!
Boy, I would've saved a bit of grief had I watched this video sooner 😅. Last night was my first time sealing a medium sized painting and it didn't..really work the way I had anticipated. But never fear, those are the pieces we learn most from after all. Thanks for the videos. Wishing us all luck keeping our sanity in tact while working with epoxy ❤️
Recently I started my ocean series and really want to apply resin on them but I have always failed to apply it and been scared. I almost gave up on resin... then I found your video! It is very helpful and gave me a hope. I decided to give myself one more chance. I just put resin on my favourite piece. Finger cross. Thank you for sharing your tips!!
6/23/23 Hi Ty very much for this great tutorial, over the past week I have watched many, many videos on how to apply resin to your art work but none were as simple as this here and I love how you also showed how to remove the excess resin off the back.. GREAT VIDEO, extremely helpful Thank you for sharing this..
You mix much faster than others I’ve seen. That is why I shy away from resin. Mixing is different from resin to resin and artist to artist. You do make it look doable, though. Thanks for a great, thorough tutorial.
Wow....Lee....how informative this video was....we artists all need to take the proper precautions and you did an excellent job of explaining every detail!!! Wonderful job and appreciate you both....Love Gramma Donna
Thank you so much from PEI (Canada). You video was easy, explicit and informative. I learned so much. Even about a simple error can be now fixed. Now I'm not afraid to tackle resin/epoxy large canvases. I can feel to love. You guys are great.
Lee and Jeremy. This was a great video. I am sure it helped everyone who watched it. I too needed help. I couldn’t find Art resin at the time and totally ruined a large painting as it became incredibly sticky and didn’t cure..I had bought the resin from my local hardware store but it wasn’t suitable for art. Thank you so much for making it easy to understand and emulate. Cheers Marie ‘downunder’ 💖
Thank you so much for your fabulous video. At 74 years young, I recently came across this art form and was enchanted immediately. I have to do it! It calls to me. Have however been concerned about the toxicity of resin. As well as being in the later bloom of my life, I am chemically sensitive. So grateful for a fabulous product and even more fabulous teachers.🏳🌈🦄🌈 Did have one question. Is one coat enough if there are no blemishes? Thanks for being you. SunShine
Thank you for the lovely lovely comment. So very awesome of you. And we are so glad you’re here with us on this journey. Absolutely, one coat, if there aren’t any blemishes, will be just the right amount for your canvas.
Thank you for this great tutorial step by step❤ I just founded at the right time as I'm thinking on resin my pices, this tutorial certainly motivates me. Thank you Masse Studio❤🙏
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I resined twice, but this presentation answered a lot of my questions as to the reasons my final product was not perfect.
Thank you so much for your easy to follow tutorial.. I was really wanting to have a go at using resin.. but once you mentioned about the safety side of it I have decided not to try coz I have a respiratory illness(since birth so it ain't gonna go away)and as I only have a small flat ,lounge and kitchen are together so have no way of getting away from the toxins, I'd also be worried about my cat breathing it in too..but I'm so grateful for the caution and glad I've not wasted money on purchasing any of it... your artwork is totally awesome, I'd be more than happy if mine was at least half as good as yours.. Your videos are so fun and informative..thank you so very much x
Sorry to hear about you respiratory illness! Maybe one day they will come out with something that’s better than the resin they have today! Thank you so much for the kind words! It’s messages like this that keep us going!

I feel much more confident that this is a step I can now do. I’m wondering if you have ever varnished any of your paintings (with spray or using a brush) and which finishing process do you prefer? Thank you so very much for sharing this with us! Be happy and well!
Hi Melissa! We have used both and definitely prefer the resin over a spray varnish. The resin just finishes it off so perfectly we just prefer that one.
What a great video! Your entire way of instructing as well as cutting out what doesn't need to be watched just fantastic! Thankyou!!
Thank you so much, its my most watched episode and I really loved putting it together. Maybe time for an update.
Lee and Jeremy, thank you so much for this fabulous tutorial, you covered every aspect of the process. The finished piece is outstanding. Sorry I missed this premier, but crazy weekend with all the other and I felt guilty leaving my hubby so much had to finally tear myself away and sit and have a beer with him. lol. I usually watch all your premieres it just that I am there but not chatting I just say hi to everyone. You guys are amazing, love all your videos, have watched you from the first one. Wish I could go to the fluid art experience but coming from Canada makes it a little more complicated.
Thank you so much! maybe one day we will have one in Canada! You never know!
I'm so so grateful I stopped to watch this. I learned so much and loved you accent and welcoming words. thankyou so much.
Thank you. I’m so glad it helped .❤️
Thank you for this!! I needed help and this was so helpful!!❤❤
You’re so very welcome
I think you both are Gems and I have been blessed with the luck of having you in my path!
Thank you so much!
I appreciate you guys so much. I want to make sure you know that always. This was a fantastic tutorial. So good. You have alleviated my major resining fears. I will say I almost had a frickin' heart attack when you hit that canvas with the sand paper!
Thank you so much Elayne!
Fantastic video ... thank you. I will have a go to do my first resin coating now, feel way more confident.
I’m so excited and we have a new resin video coming out in a couple of weeks with some updates
You two are so great and so wonderful to listen to whether painting or doing a tutorial! You should consider doing audio books!💙💙 Thanks so much for doing this video on resin. I feel so much more confident moving forward. Great content! Your pieces are gorgeous and your chatter is the best ever!!Thanks so much! Be well!❤️
Thank you so much!
Hi Guys it is great that you have gone through this process for people wanting to do their own resin, or to help anyone with issues. However, there is one very important aspect with the mixing of the resin in particular the ratio component that is not quite correct. It is why some artist use 2 cups to measure the fluid amount instead of weight. The actual ratio mix for art resin and mainly others (check manufacturers instruction) is a 1:1 part ratio ( some are 2:1). This ratio recommendation is based on Fluid volume and not a percentage or weight proportion ratio. As you are aware a 2 part resin mix there is alway one part that is thicker (higher density) than the other part. What happens when you mix by weight is you will have more fluid ounce or grams of the runnier part in your cup than the thicker part. This means you are not using a 1:1 fluid vol ratio. What should happen is you empty both bottles of the resin at the time. However if you mix on your scale by weight your bottle of the runnier part will empty first as you will be using more. Whilst some brands of resin can handle this small measurement error, some do not plus you will have leftover of one part. Also when you use a 2:1 part ratio the measurement error can have issues in curing. I learned this the hard way when I had issues and was using scales and weights to measure. I also had many frustrated conversations with manufacturers until we identified the problem of not using a fluid ratio measurement. Which means you use a fluid measuring cup to measure your equal parts preferably in 2 separate cup as they should be as exact as possible. This comment is only meant to help you. I have watched you from your beginning and know you are always eager to learn and get tips in your journey. Regards
You are so correct. But, being that we are using such small quantities of resin mixing it 1:1 ratio has never impacted the finished product. As Lee said though you should always follow the manufacturers instructions that come with the resin.
Are you psychic? This totally happened to me, today. After an hour the edges got uncovered with resin. Like it pooled in the center and pulled the edges in
Oohhh crazy! But at least now you have the tools to fix it. Yay!!
Thank you very much for this video! I didn't even get bored or lose interest. I usually do after 10-15 minutes. I have never finished a painting because I was too scared! Not anymore, thanks to you!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for the lovely comments
I’m sorry my dear friends, I won’t be able to make this one live. I’m moderating for another video, but I will watch later!! Love you Bois!!
I was wondering where one of my favorite peeps was at! All good see you at the next one Angie!
This was a great informative video, thanks! Also, I am *obsessed* with the way you say "bubble" every time.
LOL Thank you .....'bubble' that one was just for you x
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have used resin with very few perfect outcomes and actually some of best paintings are sitting, waiting to be fixed. After this tutorial I feel confident that I can fix them. Thank you for being so detailed!
You’re so very welcome, anything we can do to help! 😊
I have just started out in resin . This was a perfect video to help. So practical and useful. Thank you so much
Soooo glad it helped
This is fantastic information. I am so grateful, because I just did my first resin over a painting and was HORRIFIED to find that it didn't stick in some spots, despite my careful cleaning. I ended up with divots and bare spots and darned near cried. So now I know I can fix it and I'm much happier. Thank you!
You absolutely can! You got this
@@MasseArtStudio FIVE layers later, it is complete. Not as perfect as yours, but in a state I can live with. I think I may be resin challenged. I'm going to keep pouring until I've got it dialed in. Thank you for the encouragement!
This is the most thorough resin video from all the acrylic pouring peoples. 🎉
Thank you. We hope it was helpful.
This is the best tutorial on how to apply resin. You both are the best. Thank you, K
Thank you so much Kaye!

Thank you Sharon. Means so much. Thank you.

Hey you both wonderful cute guys
Thank you so much for sharing this video. Helped so much. Now I want to try this by myself. My resin is standing for months in my home cause I didn't know exactly how to use it. I will give it a try now.
Thanks a lot.
Thank you so very very much
Thanks for sharing!, Resin can be tricky, I’ve been using resin 3 yrs now, all my clients love the shine it gives, good tutorial
Thank you so much Louise! We love the way it finishes pieces off!
so last night I resealed a piece with issues. sanded it and followed your process. turned out SO good! And that "double glove" idea....genius!!
Yay. Thank you so much. I’m so glad it worked for you.
Thank you for such a thorough example. Going to try my Lazy Susan. Feel a bit more comfortable after watching your video.
You can do it!
Thank You both for doing this Video - I Learned All the Questions I was Wondering.. Thanks Again..
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for the tutorial! As a beginner to the acrylic art journey, it is so incredibly helpful for tutorials like this... at no cost!! I'm a beginner trying to find my way and it's frustrating to come across tutorials that want me to sign up at a cost just to see how to resin my piece. So thank you thank you for this instructional video!! ❤️❤️
You are so welcome! We are so happy that it helps.
This is the most helpful resin video I’ve ever seen! It RESINated 😉 with me more than anything I’ve watched. Thank you, thank you!! New favorite channel 😍🎨💖
You’re so very welcome ❤️
Came here for 1 answer to a resin question left with so many more answers to questions I didn’t know I had. Lol. Thanks. Great informative video! Love you guys!
So, So glad it helped you out! Thank you for joining us on this journey!
This is an excellent tutorial! Thank you both so much. I’m much less hesitant to try resining a piece thanks to you gentlemen!
You are so welcome and you got this!
Thank you. Excellent directions clearly delivered. Now I can get on with all I have to finish.
Glad it helped!
I am so glad that I came across this today. I've been wanting to use resin but was afraid of the fumes. Well this is awesome news about the resin you use. Thank you so much
Glad I could help! Thank you for watching
you 2 are angels. NOBODY has ever told me about the bubble wrap issue. thank you so so much. 💓
You are so welcome!
This was amazing work. Thank you for the clear instructions on how to use resin. You really addressed my fears on using resin.
Thank you for watching. If there is anything you think I’m missing please let me know
This is one of the best videos I've seen on resin. Makes it so that it's not as scary to deal with resin lol. thank you!!!!
You are so welcome!
You couldn’t have done this video better! Thank you so much!
Gosh thank you so very much. I have an updated video that will air this coming Wednesday
Best tutorial on resin EVER !!! Thank you so much. I was so afraid to use resin on my artwork but now, after watching your video, I will do it with confidence ! Because I know how to fix it. Merci from Montréal :)
So glad it was helpful!
Hey guys, thank you so much for sharing your info on resining a canvas. Love how you showed how to fix a canvas resin pour. ❤🎉❤😊
Our pleasure!
You two are super detailed in everything. I stopped painting for awhile but just started again and I learned so much from the both of you! Thank you so very much! Keep up the great work🌷
This message means everything to us! Thank you! So happy you started back up!
I subscribed in August of last year when you did your very first video. You gave confidence to beginning pour painters. I realized when I saw this live that I haven't watched since late last year.😲
I watched a few others tonight and I am amazed by how much you have grown in just a year with both your channel and your paintings!! They are stunning!
I now have my notifications set! Congratulations to you both!!
Thank you so much Kennedy! That means so much to us!
Fantastic tutorial! You guys are awesome!
Thank you so very much. So glad it helped
Great video, Lee and Jeremy. Beautiful paintings and detailed resin tips. Grateful hugs. 🎶💞🎶
Thank you so much Jan!
What great instruction, really appreciate all the information. Trying to my never up to do my first.
You can do it!
Boy, I would've saved a bit of grief had I watched this video sooner 😅. Last night was my first time sealing a medium sized painting and it didn't..really work the way I had anticipated. But never fear, those are the pieces we learn most from after all.
Thanks for the videos. Wishing us all luck keeping our sanity in tact while working with epoxy ❤️
Thank you so much! I really hope it helps next time
Thank you so much for taking the time to teach us Lee! Blessings.
You are so welcome
Thank you so much, i' m a new artist, self thought. I've been a little nervous about resin paintings. This helps me a lot ♥️👍😎
If so glad to hear that. Let us know how you get on.
What wonderful program on resin! I have watched others, but they do not include how to fix problems. Thank you so much 🥰
Glad it helped out!
Recently I started my ocean series and really want to apply resin on them but I have always failed to apply it and been scared. I almost gave up on resin... then I found your video! It is very helpful and gave me a hope. I decided to give myself one more chance. I just put resin on my favourite piece. Finger cross. Thank you for sharing your tips!!
Of course! Thank you for watching! Let us know how it turned out!

Hi Ty very much for this great tutorial, over the past week I have watched many, many videos on how to apply resin to your art work but none were as simple as this here and I love how you also showed how to remove the excess resin off the back.. GREAT VIDEO, extremely helpful Thank you for sharing this..
You’re so very welcome. I’m so glad it was helpful.
You mix much faster than others I’ve seen. That is why I shy away from resin. Mixing is different from resin to resin and artist to artist. You do make it look doable, though. Thanks for a great, thorough tutorial.
Thank you so much!
Wow....Lee....how informative this video was....we artists all need to take the proper precautions and you did an excellent job of explaining every detail!!! Wonderful job and appreciate you both....Love Gramma Donna
Thank you! Big Hugs Gramma Donna!
Thank you so much from PEI (Canada). You video was easy, explicit and informative. I learned so much. Even about a simple error can be now fixed. Now I'm not afraid to tackle resin/epoxy large canvases. I can feel to love. You guys are great.
Thank you so much for the lovely comments. Thank you for being here ❤️
Lee and Jeremy. This was a great video. I am sure it helped everyone who watched it. I too needed help. I couldn’t find Art resin at the time and totally ruined a large painting as it became incredibly sticky and didn’t cure..I had bought the resin from my local hardware store but it wasn’t suitable for art. Thank you so much for making it easy to understand and emulate. Cheers Marie ‘downunder’ 💖
Thank you so much Marie! So glad it was helpful!
I asked the question before the end of the video. Thank you for showing how to take of those drips.
You are so very welcome
Thank you for sharing this information, much appreciated.
You are very welcome! Glad you liked it!
Thank you so much for your fabulous video. At 74 years young, I recently came across this art form and was enchanted immediately. I have to do it! It calls to me. Have however been concerned about the toxicity of resin. As well as being in the later bloom of my life, I am chemically sensitive. So grateful for a fabulous product and even more fabulous teachers.🏳🌈🦄🌈
Did have one question. Is one coat enough if there are no blemishes? Thanks for being you. SunShine
Thank you for the lovely lovely comment. So very awesome of you. And we are so glad you’re here with us on this journey. Absolutely, one coat, if there aren’t any blemishes, will be just the right amount for your canvas.
@@MasseArtStudio thanks
Wow! I am amazed and you have instilled confidence in my first attempt at applying resin to my art piece. Thank you!
You can do it! That’s so wonderful to hear
Thank you for this great tutorial step by step❤ I just founded at the right time as I'm thinking on resin my pices, this tutorial certainly motivates me.
Thank you Masse Studio❤🙏
You are so welcome!
This is the best video I have seen on resin pour.
Gosh thank you so much. So glad you enjoyed it
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I resined twice, but this presentation answered a lot of my questions as to the reasons my final product was not perfect.
Glad it was helpful!
Wow wonderful Abstract painting using colours are amazing keep it up With Best Wishes 💐💗💜💯
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow! THANK YOU! I have DOZENS of pieces that need this!
You are so welcome!
Very helpful, guys! Thank you for all the tips and in such an entertaining format. I watched every minute!
Glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful!
Thank you so much for your easy to follow tutorial.. I was really wanting to have a go at using resin.. but once you mentioned about the safety side of it I have decided not to try coz I have a respiratory illness(since birth so it ain't gonna go away)and as I only have a small flat ,lounge and kitchen are together so have no way of getting away from the toxins, I'd also be worried about my cat breathing it in too..but I'm so grateful for the caution and glad I've not wasted money on purchasing any of it... your artwork is totally awesome, I'd be more than happy if mine was at least half as good as yours..
Your videos are so fun and informative..thank you so very much x
Sorry to hear about you respiratory illness! Maybe one day they will come out with something that’s better than the resin they have today! Thank you so much for the kind words! It’s messages like this that keep us going!
