Description:
1st Class - We will prep canvas and spend time planning and placing crushed glass. The instructor will demonstrate various procedures, then be available to guide you through each step. Once resin is mixed, you have a very short window to put the resin on your canvas before the resin sets.
2nd Class - Finishing touches. Final steps to be demonstrated and completed. You may complete your canvas with your own finishing touch.
After this class, you will come away with the techniques which may be used in future paintings. The the end of the lesson, you will will take away your own "Original Resin" piece of art. You will be ready to create a piece by yourself. In addition to step-by-step instructions, samples will be provided for your reference.

Materials supplied by students:
- Wear old clothes and bring apron (resin stains)
- If you have a level bring it for your personal use, instructor has only 2 so it may take time to get all pieces ready before applying resin.
- A flat paintbrush no wider than an inch
- A clean box no smaller than 14x14x3 inch to cover work while drying

Objectives:
- Learn tehniques on future resin artwork.
