- Demonstration Only - Dirty Pour
A new practice tile. Experimenting with different types of colorants to achieve lacing and cell like effects without resiblast or other additives.
Stay safe and take appropriate safety measures when working with resin and acrylic pigments and tints. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
It is very inspiring watching you. I especially like the fact that you use just the right amount of resin. Others seem to pour an inordinate amount of resin onto their tile or canvas and that just seems like an expensive waste or resin. You seem to get it spot on. That tile turned out really nice. Looking forward to the next one.
Chris, it is so nice to see your most recent video here. I enjoy all of your videos and look forward to each new one. Thank you so much for sharing.
Love your videos! Beautiful art and loads of good info. Thank you!
So glad you’re pouring resin again. I, for one, have missed you.
Fantastic! Love the colors and the motion in this piece.
Beautiful colors and I love it Great pour. I love resin pouring You make it look so so easy. I have learned a lot from you thank you for showing us how to do this. Thanks
Pretty! Lots of lacey cells!
Absolutely love your art x
That looks wonderful!!
Love this !!!
Thank you Ellen. 🌺❤️
Awesome.. your first tile initially looked like an abstract rose 🌹
Thank you 🌺🌺🌺
Thats so amazingly gorgeous!
Just beautiful. Reminds me of an exotic clam. 💙
I was just wanted to know about this one. I like the way it doesn’t move much. Thank you for the videos I enjoy watching.
This was Aldax moulds super clear. Any of the glasscoat type resins 1:1 will be the same.
Really enjoyed that, thank you :) so pretty.
Wow when you started swirling i saw an eye. Love it great colours
😄 i almost stopped but told myself that the purpose of the exercise was to learn what happens when the different mixes cross over each other. I think I will do this one again on a full size tile.
Me too...an eye..,later it became an eye of a turtle...
So glad you are back. I have missed your videos.
Awe. Thanks Deborah 😊
Ohh, that's nice. I really like that 1st blue one!!
There is something quite magical that happens with turquoise and a sharp white.
This is really nice, never thought it would turn out so beautiful! 😊❤️ love listening to you and your way of explaining everything you do and your thoughts during the process 😊❤️💕 very helpful to us that are new to this 😊👍
I’ve missed seeing you. Thanks for some fabulous ideas.
Its nice to be back with some warm weather
So glad to see you back making videos! You’re very good to share and to do it in real time as it helps us learn. Thank you 😊 p.s. I love the way this one turned out 👍🏼
I have a love affair with turquoise and white. 😀
Maravilloso! Saludos desde México! ❤️
I enjoy watching you for I learn something new each and every time. Thank you

Yay! Thanks so much for the vid! I never thought of removing color to define my design, brilliant! Plan? I actually prefer an experimental vid. We all watch vids of artists quickly pouring a resin painting, and that's nice and kind of Zen to watch. I love to see Creative Play, trying new things, new tools, and a gaining a new way to 'Look' at the Process, that's where I really learn something that can have an impact on how I approach my own process, a way to evolve, I guess. Again, thanks so much for your time! Karen 👩🎨
LOL you gave me the impetus to set this one up. I find the playing and discovery part of this journey the most fulfilling and these small tiles are a perfect substrate to use. They are small enough to learn new things and new colour combos and will fit into standard photo frames (that have hanging hardware) if you want to keep them.
Lovely Chris. I am not a fan of dirty pours, but I love the design you have achieved, I might even have a go.xx
Me neither but I suppose dirty pours with resin have their place as does every technique. Give things a go and see what happens. It helps you understand what all your materials do and you never know..... you might discover new effects that you can somehow work into your future artwork.
Very pretty.
Chris, I watched this first thing this morning while having my coffee. There was no sound. Your hands were moving like you were explaining. But just watched it again and there is sound. Lovely pour, I love it. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
Well that is a bit spooky. 😊
Chris Cross , lol, I just realized, the one I saw with no sound was on Facebook, this copy has sound
Message to all people watching this...I love you deeply!!!
It sure turned out different from what it started out like. Bravo! 👏👏👏
thanks Hilloree 😀
Álmost júst like people...
Lovely.
Thank you dear soulsister!!!
Thank you, I really enjoyed that 😊
Pleasure Anne.
Thanks love it
I missed you!
very nice.
What causes the cell reaction in a resin pour? This is stunning and beautiful! You inspire me! I love the acrylic pour with silicone oil but have not tried the resin pour! Thank you for sharing!
Its more a lacing effect than cells in your acrylic pours. The same concepts apply though. Heavier density pigments fall through lighter pigments. So if you have titanium white pigment it will fall through say a blue ink. The trick is to spread the white thin enough to break apart but not to mix and blend with your other colours. You want it to float on top. When you heat resin it thins so you can use your heat gun to blow your white over the other colours or even tilting will achieve the same.
Chris your videos are wonderful, thank you! Do you have a video on how to build your leveler? I thought I had seen one from you. Thanks!
Thank you. The leveller is just a diy version some of the little legs they sell for kitchen cupboads screwed into a piece of wood. You should be able to buy them from your local hardware store. 👍🏻
Just beautiful ❣️ Did you paint your tile black or was it black when you bought it? Did you prepare your tile in any way prior to pouring?
Sorry. Please disregard. I just saw your answer below 😁
I LOVE this!!! absolutely love your technique!! How do you tell which resins are thicker and dont run so much?
Often its as easy as the company calls their resin low viscosity or art resin. There is a growing group of artists that like me prefer the higher viscosity resins. These are not generally promoted for art but as doming resins for timbers, bar top etc. If you look at the Technical Data Sheet for the resins you are thinking of they will have a VOC (viscosity rating.... low is thinner, high is thicker)
Wow, so Gorgeous !!
Absolutely gorgeous, cracking pour. What do you do with the tiles afterwards?
LOL Thank you. Depends on a few things. If its just practice like these small ones I pour over. The larger tiles are framed and if I like them I hang on my walls. Most get given away or repurposed.
Chris Cross oh so you can get them framed. i always wondered what to do with mine. might try a pour in thinner canvas boards. might save a bit of money in framing costs. thank you.
Resin is very strong and will buckle canvas boards as it flexs. You need a solid substrate that can take the strength of resin.
@@crisscross104 thats good to know, i'll make sure i experiment with good solid surfaces. thank you!
Chris how did you prepare the tile did you paint them black? If so what did you use?thank you for sharing
These are small black tiles. They have a slight matt feel but if I ever use gloss I scour or sand to give tooth. Then its just a super clean with alcohol and any taping you want to do.
I AGREE w everyone else U WERE definitely missed for a while!
I have 5 resins on the go at the moment ranging from low viscosity 2:1 to high viscosity 1:1 they all have different properties. Some take higher heat, have different working times, better for layering or for coating. I try not to get stuck with one type because i learn more by being versatile. I do get a bit messy but originally working with limited space taught me to be organised and a bit more contained. I try to have clarity in my plan and limit the wastage if I can.
Chris Cross I am looking for the resins w higher temps
I have taken the tiles (little larger that the 12x12) and experimenting w making some cool tile trays but looking for a high temp resin-it’s been suggested to me to use the (I think) the tabletop resin? Can’t recall off the top of my head
I have gotten resin in my hair all over and I always feel like a gloppy mess - I was working outside on my patio and well 1 can only image lol
Its a good idea to read all the material safety sheets on the resins you are looking at. They will give you the temp range you can subject your cured resin to. The tabletop resins are great for tiles because they cure hard and rigid. On a canvas or flexible substrate they can crack and pull away from the substrate.
Chris Cross tyvm Chris!
Absolutely stunning! Could you tell me the name of the resin that you used? Thanks.
I rarely talk about specific resin brands because we are all over the world and have access to different materials. I have 5 different resins on the go at the moment that vary in their properties from very low viscosity that is thin and runny all the way to really thick high viscosity like this one and I choose what I will use based on the technique and results I am after. Try as many as you can to understand how they all work.
That is amazing, I am living overseas for a year before returning back to Chicago and would like to make like this tile (hopefully) as a business, can you tell me who can buy it and how and where can be used? Any help or ideas?
Sorry i make these for personal use and don't self them. Good luck with it.
Chris, I had ask where you get your mica and you answered on eBay. Thank you so much for answering, I went on eBay and there’s so much that it’s confusing. Lol. Which group should I go for and what colors for a beginer
This is ebay US but they are on most ebay sites www.ebay.com/itm/10g-Cosmetic-Grade-Natural-Mica-Powder-Pigment-Soap-Candle-Colorant-Dye-61-Color-/262491619944
Chris Cross , thank you so very much. Love your work
That is just lovely, Chris 👍
I really, really dislike dirty pours as well. Primarily because those cells look like a virus...possibly a fungus...and no one knows a damn thing about color theory so every painting is mud. Gross! Not to mention but a 2 year old COULD actually do it! Lol.
I appreciate the care & purpose in the way you pour. Ultimately, YOU are responsible for how your piece turns out and that is true art.
Thank you, as always, for sharing.
LOL I sometimes feel i am a bit too contrived in my pours but that is the way I think. I try to be flexible but still want a balanced interesting piece at the end of it. Thats the thing isn't it.... all too easy to just throw it in the substrate for me it has to be interesting. A line, a shape, a colour combo or a visual trick of light and shade.
There is nó space for bad words...bad energy!
If I may ask...what do you use for leveling...they look like leveling tables...but I'm not sure.
My hubby made a little levelling board. I show it in the wavescape video.
Cool.I'll have to watch that...like now. lol.
Do you let them stand before you put them in the same cup ?
Not deliberately. If you mix carefully you will not have too much trouble with bubbles. Of course it will depend on how efficient you are with everything. Each resin will have an optimum work time so you do need to be a bit organised and have your order down before you start.
👍🏻👍🏻.... is there a formula for the amount of resin needed for a FLAT substrate like this? TY 😁
The Technical data sheet of each resin will tell you its coverage formula. The type of resin, how thick each layer is and your environment will all have some impact on the amount. For a general guideline I use the coverage calculator at Resin Obsession. Remember to inlude the sides in the calculation....if your canvas or board has them. There will be a bit more wastage if you are using lots of colours vs just a single clear coat.
How would one hang or display those large tiles?
Hubby makes me frames for them. these frames are just like photo frames with channels that the tiles sit in and metal clips to hold the tile in place. They are on the heavy side so make sure the hanging hardware is strong enough to hold them.
Judy Sand Isi
How do you hang your tiles? Or do they need to be displayed on easels?
These small ones fit in a store bought photo frame and hubby makes frames for the larger one.
May I ask what kind of resin you use? Thank you
I get asked this all the time and I try and prompt people to think of resin properties rather than specific brands. have 5 resins on the go at the moment ranging from low viscosity 2:1 to high viscosity 1:1 they all have different properties. Some take higher heat, have different working times, better for layering or for coating. I try not to get stuck with one type because i learn more by being versatile.
Did you add anything to get the lacing / cells?
No additives This practice was to show how the different types of colourants and create their own lacing without the need for additives.
Were those alcohol inks ?
Can you please tell what resin you use thank you.

What primer did you use
I use matt tiles in this one so I just clean thoroughly and remove any tile dust and pour directly. If the tile is glossy I will lightly scuff the surface with sand paper to give the resin a rougher surface to grip on.
What resin do you prefer?

whats the point of a dirty pour if your just going to swipe it? how will you hang a tile on the wall when you cant put screws in it?
As a practice tile, the more you can discover about your resin and how it moves and reacts the better. Swiping is just another technique. These smaller tiles will fit in a standard photo frame, or you can use adhesive or wire plate hangers or stands to display.
Can you put resin powders in pouring medium?
Dorien do you mean pigment or mica powders. You can put them in pouring medium. You need to wet them first. Some need to be dispersed in water some in alcohol. Do a couple of trys and see which method works for your pigments. Once they are fluid you can add to pouring mediums. Its similar but will dry slightly textured.
Chris Cross thanks for your reply. Have you ever tried the ‘tree ring’ pour using resin? If so, I’d love to see the results
I did but I would not call it a success. The ring pours are best done with thinish mixtures and I could not get the resin in a small enough stream to control the rings.
What do you use to hang your tiles? Thanks, Kim
These smaller tiles fit into a standard photo frame or you can mount on a board with liquid nails or tile adhesive. The larger tiles we make the frames and hang from the frames. They also look good on mini easel or plate stands.
