WHAT WILL YOU LEARN IN THE ONLINE COURSE ISLANDS AND ARCHIPELAGOS?
Creating Islands to Scale
In this course you will learn to represent islands, archipelagos and real landscapes in aerial view, respecting proportions, shapes and topographies, but from an artistic approach.
We will work with epoxy resin and 3D rock textures so that you can create any territory you imagine or need to reproduce, with visual coherence and depth.
As our main project, we will create the Cabrera Archipelago (Balearic Islands), learning to interpret maps and translate them into an artistic work.
Scale Design
You will learn to:
- Design your island or landscape to scale , without improvisation
- Build the foundation of the work with sound judgment
Supports and Materials
You become familiar with everything you will need to create your work.
We'll look at the most suitable supports, which materials are truly essential and which are optional, so you can start confidently and without overcomplicating things.
Types of Resins and Pigments
You will learn how to correctly choose the ideal resin for your project and understand its characteristics to work with confidence.
I also explain how to select and use quality pigments, how to dose and combine them to achieve transparency, depth, and natural colors...
Security Measures
Working safely with resin is essential.
In this section I'll show you the basic protection measures, how to prepare your workspace, and what to keep in mind to enjoy the process calmly and without risks.
Sculptural Processes
I will teach you how to create rocks, reliefs, and natural surfaces using sculpting pastes and adaptable painting techniques.
It doesn't matter if you don't have exactly the same materials: within the course I show you real alternatives, from Fine Arts products to solutions accessible in your country.
Preparation of the work
Before you start creating, preparation is everything.
Here you will learn how to properly level your support, protect the edges, and prepare your work to receive the resin, avoiding mistakes that can ruin the final result.
Color selection
You will discover how to choose and combine colors to create balanced, natural, and harmonious seascapes.
Beyond the specific shades, you will learn the logic of the technique so that you can then apply it to any palette and your own style.
Creating Beaches and Waves
We're entering the most exciting part of the process.
I guide you step by step through the resin application session and the creation of the waves, teaching you how to control the movement of the resin, the effects, and the little tricks that make all the difference in achieving a clean and professional finish.
You will learn to master the waves and all the tricks so that they won't resist you in your creations.

Why learn at GreenMaiden?
I am Eva Jurado , artist and founder of GreenMaiden .
I started working with resin when there were no clear courses or training programs.
I learned on my own, through trial and error, wasting materials, losing time, and often facing results that weren't what I was looking for. Even so, there was something about that difficult and unpredictable material that captivated me and pushed me to keep going.
Over the years, and after a great deal of practice, I developed and perfected many of the techniques I teach today. Not because they were fashionable, but because there was nothing on the market that explained how to work with resin in a clear, safe, and artistic way.
GreenMaiden was born from that. From the need to create the space that I would have liked to find when I started.
In my courses I teach you the technique as I apply it in my work, with a structured and honest method, so that you don't make the same mistakes, don't waste materials and can move forward with confidence from the beginning.
My intention is not for you to copy what I do. On the contrary: I want you, once you understand the technique, to find your own artistic language, develop your personal way of creating, and become an artist from your own perspective.
