An now for something completely different, NOT!

I will add a hint of very fine red glitter when I coat it with a polymer high gloss resin. So far the resin is going okay on the other two panels, although I hate wearing the filter mask (I am a bit claustraphobic). Should see me with a snorkel, its pathetic, can't last longer than a minute or two before I hit panic and I rush up for air like a mad woman, which sucks because I LOVE snorkeling. Okay, that's another story.

Chris Ofili has done a series of work in which he incorporates glitter, resin and other items, as well as his usual dung (of course). Here is a beautiful example called Afrodizzia on artnet.

I thought I would google resin art/epoxy coated paintings and see what I can come up with and found some nice examples of artists embedding things onto painted canvas and coating it with resin.
