Resin Your Art Rocks - No Experience Needed! Using this Easy How to Art Resin on Rocks Tutorial! I used Art Resin to finish 5 painted rocks in this video- there were 4 different kinds of paint on the rocks. I used Water color Pencils, Watercolor Pens, Fluid Acrylic Paint and Standard Acrylic Paint. Using the resin just makes each of the rocks colors show so much depth and richness. Give it a try and see if you love this simple technique as much as I do!
Art Resin is a lovely product that is mixed 1:1. It doesn't have any VOCs, has a very light oder that is slightly floral, no chemical smell to it in my opinion. I has about 45 minutes of open time and is really easy to work with. It says that it is non yellowing and that is really great especially when we are covering our art work with it.
Make sure to check out the Art Resin Coverage Calculator at bit.ly/ArtResin... to cover these 5 rocks I used only about 1 ounce total of the mixed resin!

If your rock has been resined can you paint over the resin to make your drawing? Do you just paint? What can you use...acrylic? Ink? Paint pens? Do you have to put a layer on the resin to prep for the painting? If so..what do you use/do? Thank you..I am a newbie and have looked everywhere for answers to these questions. I used leftover resin on a few rocks...now don't know how to paint them. Thank you for any help you can provide!

@DeliberatelyCreative 3 года назад

Oh my gosh! I just found this message- I’m so sorry!! Yes you can paint right on top of resin with acrylic paint and acrylic paint pens and the either resin over two top or spray with clear acrylic sealer. Have fun and experiment

@mikeswain9085 4 года назад

Thanks for sharing the video. For me, there's nothing to beat a resin finish. As I prefer the signed base of my pre-cast stones to be as glossy as the top, I apply the resin in two separate stages, base first and let it cure then do the same to the top. The main problem I have doing it this way is getting runs but the more I do, the runs are getting less frequent.

@Jodysfunstuff 4 года назад

How do you deal with the other side of the rock? I get sharp edges around the flat spot? I use my dremel to sand them or I put them on nail tips to dry. ( less contact surface) no one ever talks about the side it lays on or shows it.?

@DeliberatelyCreative 5 лет назад

Carol McCollum yes, the art resin doesn’t have any VOCs and the scent is softly floral. I’m super sensitive to strong odors and the Art Resin doesn’t set off any breathing issues for me.

Very nice tutorial. You were recommended by Art Resin. Curious with the watercolor pencils what is the best “base coat” - acrylic or watercolors? Thank you.

@DeliberatelyCreative 2 года назад

Hi there! I used the Arteza Watercolor brush pens and drew them free hand. On the coffee cup I drew in with a Micron Pen and let it dry then colored with the watercolor markers. I was playing and didn’t record doing them. Thank you for watching and your question!

@jehuckphoto 6 лет назад

Awesome video! I just started painting rocks and finding it a fun hobby. Do you keep your rocks outside at all? Our climate here in Canada is cold so just wondering how that resin will hold up in the outdoors.

@patmartin7664 3 года назад

Loved the video. It was very helpful. I work in either acrylic paint or water based pens, or a combination of both. When I resined I noticed spots that looked slightly pitted. Hard to explain exactly but I did notice on your poppy rock you had some of the same. What is that caused by and what do I need to do to prevent that or fix it? Thank you.

@DeliberatelyCreative 3 года назад

The pitting can be caused by a couple things-1 it could be imperfections in the rock and the resin settles into the lowest spots. 2 it could be air bubbles that surfaced an popped and it was late and setting up a bit and didn’t fill back in. 3 it could be dust settling on the surface and creating an imperfection. In rocks- I don’t worry about the imperfections - but if I wanted a perfectly smooth surface I would sand and wipe and then do another coat of resin and repeat until it was acceptable. Remembering that you have to let it cure at least 24 hours(or more depending on the thickness of the resin) Thanks for watching!!

@patmartin7664 3 года назад

@@DeliberatelyCreative Thanks for the quick response. I had the rocks covered so it was not dust but could be either 1. or 2. Is it possible to take a tab of Mod Podge or similar and dab that into the spot? I might give it a shot just to experiment and see. This is a learning opportunity for sure. Thank you.

@kmcrafts9400 6 лет назад

@louisetripoli6831 6 лет назад

these are beautiful and you make it look easy..but isn't it expensive to use resin for kindness rocks? Or are these rocks you save/sell?

@DeliberatelyCreative 6 лет назад

I haven't ever sold any of my rocks yet. I have been thinking of doing that though. I love how they look and just think how special you would feel if you came across a beautiful resined rock. It would be like finding a gem or a gold coin. The cost of of 1 ounce of mixed up art resin is a bit more than varnish but the effect is worth it to me. :)

@Godswrathishere1 5 лет назад

have you ever taken a painted patio paver and put resin on it? If you have, is it possible to get a very smooth finish on it? Pavers have all kinds of dips and holes in it, but just wondering, because I paint them sometimes with beautiful paintings, but sealer just does not cut it when it comes to putting them out on a porch or near a swimming pool in the summer, etc..I need a way to make them stay beautiful after I am finished painting them.

@kentchr76 Год назад

I use Liquitex High Gloss Varnish (waterbased). No smell, no risk and same shine after about 3 coats with 3 hours between each coat. It’s easy to work with, and it’s best to use a foam brush.

@DeliberatelyCreative Год назад

Thank you! Great suggestion

@tammyluce8474 4 года назад

Ok I’m kinda new to rock painting and have just been using a spray sealant. I’d love to try the resin but do you have to have the torch for it to work right??

@scrappky 4 года назад

Hello, those are beautiful stones! I have been experimenting with putting resin on my rocks and have a difficult time with the bottom of the stones. Even putting them on silicone mats leaves a little mark on the bottom from where they sat on the silicone. I just tried from someone else's comment to resin the bottom first, wait 24 hours then resin the top, so am trying that now. There has to be a better easier solution!?

@scrappky 4 года назад

That didn't work either! I did the bottoms of the rocks first and after 24 hours, I did the tops of the rock being careful to use the smallest amount of resin and being sure to smooth the sides of the rock with a gloved hand. After 24 hours, the bottom of the rocks still had little marks where they sat on the silicone mat even though I didn't put any resin on the bottom on the rocks as well a few drip marks where the top and bottom of the rock met. What did you do differently that you didn't get any marks on the bottoms of your rocks even though you coated the entire thing in resin? Angela from The Happy Dotting Company coats her entire rocks in resin than rests them on 3 nails driven through a wood block to dry. She does get little marks from the nails though. This is driving me crazy!

@cplumlee8466 4 года назад

Thanks for your helpful tutorial. Is your torch butane, propane or is it a heat gun? Which would you recommend?

@DeliberatelyCreative 4 года назад

It’s a butane torch that I only use with my resin projects. Thank for watching!!

@Amanda-vf7ez 3 года назад

For the bright rock, the fluid acrylic paint.. I'm trying to find that kind of paint. I want those bright colors to paint my rocks with. The only thing I can find is fluid pouring paint. Is that the same thing?

@DeliberatelyCreative 3 года назад

Hi! Thank you for watching and your question- If you mean the one that has the poured sunset landscape on the white rock that was Bombay Inks in Liquitex Pouring Medium. The combination of transparent colors in the clear pouring medium in the white surface is what gave that super bright color. Hope that helps!

When she says "freezer paper" is that wax paper or parchment paper?

@DeliberatelyCreative 4 года назад

Hi there, freezer paper is a plastic coated paper - you can find it in a few places- In the kitchen storage wrap isle by the foil and plastic wrap. Or on the Canning supplies isle or in the Quilting supplies at the craft store. Finally you can find Reynolds freezer paper on Amazon. Good luck!

@sierraschaffer613 4 года назад

If you painted your rocks with jjust acrylic paints, will you still need to do a light spray with another sealer before you apply the resin? Or can you do straight resin to acrylic painted rocks?

@DeliberatelyCreative 4 года назад

Naturally Sierra thank you for watching! You can just go ahead and resin right over acrylic paint no problem.

Did you seal or treat the rocks in any way before you colored/painted them?

@DeliberatelyCreative 3 года назад

Hi there! Nope! Just did the Inktense pencils made sure they were dry really well. They don’t rewet so they stay put. I didn’t prep the stone before the pencils either- just washed the dust off the stone.

@jackiekamel3464 4 года назад

Did you use a rock under the rocks while curing to level?

@DeliberatelyCreative 4 года назад

my table was really level. You can use some small rocks but if the resin flows under it could attach the rocks to the bottom. Then you have a heck of a time to get them off. LOL

@lorrietimberlake7721 3 года назад

I tried silicone mats and mine stuck, and the drips were awful to peel off before the next batch. Last night I used baking parchment paper and nothing stuck at all! I ordered a box of brown half sheet pan size. We’ll use them for cooking too. Thank you for this great video. No matter what I try I get bubbles and divots after some of the bubbles pop late in the curing. After brainstorming I thing I may be being too stingy with my top resin coat and putting my torch too close which seems to almost instantly harden the resin not allowing it to fully level out. Do you have any thoughts? Thank you.

@@DeliberatelyCreative what about metallic paint pens? Also thank you so much for answering my questions. I tried asking for help in the rock painting group on FB and everyone just kind of ignored me. :/ Like resining is some big secret or something. Haha

@DeliberatelyCreative 5 лет назад

C. Matsudaira I think that sometimes in the different Facebook groups folks don’t want to give the wrong information or they think someone else will answer it better so they just go past with out any answer. It can be a bit frustrating. Glad I coup D be of some help. As for the metallic paint pens. I don’t have any experience with them and resin so my answer would be to put some in a simple pattern like a heart or star on a roc and mix up a tiny amount of resin like 1 T of resin to 1 T of hardner mix for the 2 minutes and then put it on the rock and see what happens. I personally would rather “ruin” a simple rock than one that took several hours to complete. And if it works you can still hide the simple cute rock too!
