First off, I wanted to thank all the folks who have sent kind words my way, either via the blog or email, to encourage me and express enthusiasm for the new book. For a fledgling author like myself, this means the world! Here’s one of the ones that literally made me jump for joy: “Your book…

In that time I have learned so much, about writing, about resin and about how much farther this versatile medium can be taken.

I’ve been experimenting with a new direction in resin – combining it with prints (specifically, transparent prints) to create transparent pendants with inlayed graphics.
