What is Resin Art?
Resin art is creating art with epoxy resin. Epoxy resin is a versatile liquid material that can be coloured with pigments then poured onto a surface such as wooden cheese boards or coasters, it can also be poured into silicone moulds to create a wide variety of items.
Our resin cheeseboard and coaster workshop are super fun and interactive. During the class an experienced instructor will teach you how to prep your cheeseboard and coasters. They then show you how to mix the epoxy resin, add the colour pigments, and decorate your cheese boards and coasters with both the direct pour and dirty pour techniques. The class is easy to follow with clear, simple, step-by-step demonstrations, perfect for those just beginning or looking to experiment further!
Resin Art Workshop Focus Areas
In our workshop we use Art resin which is Non-Toxic. They have had their product evaluated by the American Society for Testing and Materials; ArtResin conforms to ASTM D4236: Safe for Home Use.
Regardless, in its liquid form it is still a chemical. You need to protect your hands from epoxy resin and hardener liquids. To do this you can wear nitrile gloves to protect your hands, which are provided in our classes.
How to Prep Your Board and Coasters With Painter's Tape
Before you begin, you will need to prepare your cheese board and coasters with painters tape, masking tape, resin tape or even liquid latex by taping or painting on the latex on the underside. This is because when you pour resin, it would self level and flow over the edges and collect in little droplets on the underside. Once cured you can remove the tape or liquid latex which should give you a clean underside.
How to Mix, Colour and Pour Resin Onto Your Wooden Pieces
Art resin will always come in two bottles, one containing the resin and the other containing the hardener. Art resin is a 1:1 ratio epoxy resin by volume so you will need to pour out equal amounts of each the resin and the hardener and then mix the two for approximately 3 minutes.
Once you have mixed and divided the resin into separate cups, you can colour it using resin pigments, acrylic paint, resin dyes or mica. This is the final step before pouring!

We have tried so many techniques and products to try to achieve cells which are such a desirable characteristic of fluid artists. After many failed attempts we have found four key things that encourages cells
- A good quality resin.
- The density levels of pigments.
- The duration since the resin was mixed
- Applying heat from a heat gun or blow torch.
