Resin Art Care and Details:

For indoor display only. Wipe gently with a soft damp cloth. Avoid abrasion to the surface as it may leave visible scratches.
Avoid installing next to sources of intense or direct heat such as stoves, radiators, etc. as it might impact integrity of the piece. For artworks on wood panels, avoid spaces with extremely high or low humidity to avoid warping.

Due to nature of resin material, some air bubbles might be present in the finish and are an integral part of the piece.

FAQ

Q. What is the difference between varnish and resin finishes and how do they affect performance and cost?

A. A matte, satin, or gloss varnish will add a surface sheen, but will not seal all the textures on the surface and leave all layers of the collage work more apparent. The finishing coat, however, doesn’t only affect the aesthetics the artwork but also the cost and production time. Varnish is a more economical, lightweight, and speedy option.

The resin finish, on the other hand, creates a thick, glass-like surfaces that will encapsulate all textures underneath. It is a rather unique, uniform look that many people like. At the same time, resin artworks take longer to produce and cure; they require special substrate, more tedious labor, additional materials, and are a bit heavier than the varnished option.

Q. What is your typical production time?

A. Production time is usually estimated around 3-4 weeks for non-resin pieces and 6-9 weeks for resin pieces (due to longer production time and resin curing period). This timing is approximate and may be different for larger and more complex pieces and can be affected by current workload and material stock availability.

Q. Do I have to have my artwork framed?

A. most of my abstract mixed media collages are created on a rigid surface with hanging hardware attached for immediate display, so framing is not necessary. With that said, the edges are often unfinished or not as consistently finished as face material, therefore, some artworks will benefit from professional framing as it will offer the best display results.
