The pictures below show some of my CD/DVD 3D resin art pictures. I use things such as beads and jewellery chains and findings to create features in some of these colourful art pieces as well as handmade resin creatures (such as the 'gummy bears'). I then create a landscape and composition with layers of resin.
I create the colourful artworks you see below in the shape of animals on hand-cut MDF shapes.

Green blue and gold cat
Acrylic pour with blue, green and gold paints. Asymmetric resin seashell/ammonite shaped eyes (one silver and one gold) and heart shaped nose and copper coloured glitter star whiskers and claws. Top layer of resin for extra shine and sides painted green. On hand-cut MDF and ready to hang on a picture hook on the wall.
24cm high by 16.5cm wide.

Red squirrel
£35 + P&P
Squirrel wall art on hand-cut MDF. Acrylic pour using red paints, topped with layers of resin embedded with holographic glitter flakes for depth and sparkle, including a star eye, and a little smoky white resin to create the swirls of the tail. Side edges are painted red.

Please note resin artwork may contain tiny flecks of fibres or micro bubbles on the surface. R
These little shiny resin artwork experiments involved making resin shapes in moulds and using them to create slightly wonky pictures on cardboard coasters.
They are about 9.5cm in diameter and £30 each including P&P in the UK.





My starting point for these vinyl record artworks was exploring the creativity of iconic musicians, my interpretation of the meaning in their music and imagery, and the era from which their art originated.
These artworks were created in 2023 for the Muphoria music art gallery in Soho, London.
Please get in touch if you'd like me to create some colourful art for you (though I can never duplicate something exactly as resin is not that predictable!).
