In this course, you will learn to create defined cross-waves on natural sandy beaches, undulations, and dunes, achieving a high level of realism in your Ocean Resin Art pieces. Through different techniques for creating foam, cells, and movement, you will discover a new range of possibilities to bring your seas to life. You will learn to control waves, define them precisely, and optimize resin usage, even in large formats, avoiding unnecessary waste. This is a unique course designed to help you understand the technique in depth and apply it with confidence, consistency, and creative freedom.

In this first section, you will familiarize yourself with everything you'll need to create your artwork. We'll cover the most suitable surfaces, which materials are truly essential and which are optional, so you can start confidently and without overcomplicating things.

You will learn to correctly choose the ideal resin 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 in the sea.

Working with resin safely is essential. In this section, I will show you the basic protective measures, how to prepare your workspace, and what to keep in mind to enjoy the process calmly and without risks.

Before you start creating, preparation is everything. Here you will learn how to properly level your surface, protect the edges, and prepare your piece to receive the resin, avoiding mistakes that can ruin the final result.

You will learn how to properly level the surface before applying the resin and how to protect the edges to prevent leaks. You will learn a practical formula to calculate the exact amount of resin needed based on the format, sand volume, and type of resin used, optimizing consumption even for large formats.

We're entering the most exciting part of the process. I'll guide you step-by-step through the resin pouring session and the creation of the wave, teaching you to control the movement of the resin, the effects, and the little tricks that make all the difference for a clean, professional finish. We'll complete several resin sessions, progressively building the sea and defining the crossing waves. You'll learn to control color, transparencies, foam, and cells, using the material precisely to achieve defined and realistic waves.

Resin doesn't always behave as we expect, and that's also part of the learning process. In this course, I share key tips with you to understand the technique, avoid frustrations, and learn to enjoy the creative process, even when something doesn't work out on the first try.
