This lovely space themed mixed material resin portrait is made by Kori using layering techniques of resin and cremation ash.  The cremation ash are safely encased in a color fast layer of hard resin.

How It's Made

Creating resin is a meticulous process that begins with selecting a wooden canvas as the base.

First, she paints with vibrant acrylic to capture the essence of a space scenic on the wooden canvas, blending hues to evoke the serene beauty of nebulas in space. 

She then carefully pours and layer pigmented resin to add depth and dimension to the piece, allowing the colors and ashes to meld organically.

Intricate details, like nebulas and stars are delicately crafted using various tools and mediums.

The artwork is left to cure after each stage, and then a final cure, which is a patient waiting game that ensures a flawless, glossy finish. The final result is a captivating piece that encapsulates the tranquil allure of space, frozen in time within layers of resin.
