Ever since creating my first wave shape with resin, I have been wanting to create a freeform resin ocean wave. I have attempted this a few times, however, they have never turned out how I wanted it to. I am, however, getting closer to achieve my aim.
In the meantime, this is a video on my progress so far. I am hoping it helps you on your way to perfecting your freeform resin wave.

Thank you so much for the inspiration you’ve helped me find. Your tutorials are perfect. I’ve done several of your splash bowls, and can’t wait to get some canvases to do some multi media work. Need to rewatch how to make the resin leafs again, as I want to do a 3d canvases as well. I’ll go to Facebook and send you some of my art I snitched from you. Sue, again thank You so much.
