Dear Marlene, you can add both if you want to. If you're really interested in resin and mica or resin and acrylic pour painting, there's a very good book available called: 'Acrylic Pour Painting' by Rick Cheadle. He's a brilliant pour painting artist and he lists all the things you can add to your resin in order to create cells and other interesting effects. For instance, you can add hair spray (just a small squirt) because hair spray has a chemical called dimethicone in it which helps to create cells. Good luck with your resin pour painting. From Amanda in Australia :-)

Mary Hi Mary canvas is really hard to work with because Resin is so heavy it tends to sag the canvas in the center and all the Resin goes there So no I never use canvas . I did when I first started only small pieces though but they never looked good and MDF is something you can get from your local hardware store like Lowes or Home Depot if you go in and ask them they will show you where it’s at and it’s very inexpensive thanks so much I hope this helps ❤️❤️

I love your videos - they are so informative, and your artwork is stunning. When doing a resin pour (or working with resin in general) is there a minimum thickness for the board you're using? (so it doesn't warp) I have been looking at trying this on MDF or Hardboard... they sell it as 1/8 or 1/4 inch thick. What do you recommend? Thank you! :)
