What is Resin Art?<\/h2>\n

Epoxy resin, which is now frequently used in the DIY scene, is a two-component system of resin and hardener. Mixing these two components causes a chemical reaction, which in turn results in the liquid resin gradually turning into a solid plastic with a clear, high-gloss surface. Creating art with this epoxy resin is called resin art.<\/p>\n

How Resin is used in Art<\/h2>\n

In Europe until recently still largely unknown, the artistic work with the synthetic resin has enjoyed great popularity in Australia, Canada and the USA for years. Artworks created with the help of epoxy resin inspire with their brilliance, gloss, depth and clarity.<\/p>\n

With this technique, you have the possibility to achieve different effects depending on the choice of colors or additives, the type of casting and the painting ground.
