In this video, I want to share my tips for creating lacing and cells in your ocean pieces.

One of the most frequently asked questions, I get asked is, how do I achieve cells and lacing in my ocean art?

One of the first things you need to consider is the brand of resin you are using. Not all resins are created equally, and as such, they will all perform differently. I recommend looking for a medium consistency resin, not too runny and not too thick. Finding the right resin will mean a bit of research.

I first used the Standard UV Resin from U Resin. I wasn't able to achieve any cells or lacing with this resin, however, once I switched to their liquid glass, amazing things started to happen, and now I use no other brand.

The next factor to take into consideration is the brand of white you are using. Your white pigment or paste needs to be highly pigmented and opaque. A translucent white, will not achieve the right results. I prefer the Le Rez Angel White Pigment Paste, or if you want a powder, the Vivacious Arctic White Powder Pigment. Both are highly pigmented and will achieve a good strong white base to work with.

Next, after I have poured the base colour and let it sit for about an hour, I add a transparent layer of resin. The clear layer gives a good barrier between the lower layer and the white layer.

Next, I let the white resin sit in the cup until it started to warm in the cup. By the time I poured, it was getting quite hot. Once it gets hot, you have to work quickly and pour it on to the board.

The final step is to apply heat to the white resin and move it around. Remember to be careful and not burn your resin.
