Pouring, curing, polishing
Resin is poured liquid and cures into a glass-clear layer under which pigments hover as if in water. Anyone looking at paintings with resin for sale finds surfaces that look like polished glass.
Two components are mixed, tinted and poured over the picture. While the mass hardens, colors pull apart into veins and cells and air bubbles rise. After curing, a thick, mirror-like layer remains that can be sanded and polished.

Depth and gloss in a room
Resin throws light back and bends it at the same time. That is why the tones shift as you walk past the picture. Place the work so that no window front reflects straight into it, and avoid constant sun, since UV light can turn resin yellow.
Practical notes
Resin pictures weigh more than acrylic works. Plan for plugs and a wall that can carry the load. More on the interplay with other substances shows under mixed-media, while modern forms await in Modern.
