## About The Artist's Process & Studio Life

High-quality resin art is 20 percent inspiration and 80 percent grit. When you commission a piece, you are paying for the technical process—the multi-layer pouring, the precise 24-hour curing cycles, and the intensive sanding up to 3000 grit. It is this behind-the-scenes effort that ensures your furniture is actually heat-resistant and scratch-proof, turning a delicate art piece into a functional part of your home you can live with every day.

### The Science of the Mess
My studio in Laxmi Industrial Estate is where the magic happens, but it is rarely glamorous. Resin is a chemical medium that demands respect; if you see me covered in dust or absent from social media, I am likely locked in a 'love-hate' bond with a sander. To achieve that glass-like transparency, I use professional-grade epoxy that resists yellowing, combined with deep-pour techniques for river tables or vacuum-sealing for keepsakes.

### Why I Invite You In
I believe in full transparency. Whether you are coming in to see how I embed a childhood toy collection into a chair or watching me pour a geode-style wall art piece, I want you to understand the craft. This is why I hold workshops where I share everything—from mold-making to the tricks for achieving a perfect finish. There are no gatekeepers here.

### How We Start
Every project begins with a conversation, not a catalog. We sketch out ideas, select the wood or base, and decide on the embedded items—be it wedding garlands, crystals, or vintage collectibles. If you have an idea, no matter how wild, we can find a way to preserve it in resin. My goal is to make art that tells your story, not just decor that fills a room.
