50 Best Resin Artists with a Beach Theme (Ocean Resin Art) — 2022
There’s something about the fluidity of working with resin that lends itself well to beach-themed art. Resin just screams “OCEAN!”
Today I want to share with you what I consider the 50 Best Resin Artists with a beach theme on Etsy (in no particular order, because I love them all!).
If you’re into Ocean Resin Art, read on…

Sherri Ortega

Resin & Crushed Shells Red Coral by Sherri Ortega
One of my favorite artists both in the realms of resin and seashells is Sherri Ortega. She’s done some amazing things combining those materials. For instance, just look at what she’s done with Resin & Crushed Shells Red Coral (seashells in resin). I love it! She says about her early days in art, “I started painting furniture and any decor I could add color or shells to! I pulled out boxes of shells my mom had collected over the years and added some of my own. Before I knew it I was making a lot of different things.”

Katlyne Michelle

Ocean Resin Heart Ornaments by Katlyne Michelle
"I create to inspire, to bring peace and happiness," says resin artist Katlyne Michelle, "and to share the raw beauty of the ocean with those who love it just as much."
Pieces like these adorable Resin Heart Ornaments certainnly rectl Katlyne's artistic philosophy. Little resin ocean hearts just make me so happy.

Deniz Cem

Resin Ocean Stingray by Deniz Cem
Artist Deniz Cem comes up with some pretty unique designs using resin and wood. He has quite a few pieces wherein he utilizes the empty spaces created by knots in the wood and replaces them with resin. Which is really cool. But when I saw that he had created a beautiful wood outlined stingray and featured a resin ocean pouring over it, I knew that this was the one for me.

Efe Yuce

Dark Walnut with Ocean Resin Table by Efe Yuce
There are a few people on this list who are making some amazing tables using a combination of wood and resin. Like Efe Yuce. The only word to describe these tables created by Efe is "stunning!" I mean, the craftsmanship demonstrated here is remarkable — first off the wood itself is beautiful with fabulous grain structure and then the way that the resin creates a body of water right through the middle... stunning!

Eva Straetz

Ocean Resin by Eva Straetz
"Collecting shells walking on sand is one of my favorite things to do," says artist Eva Straetz, "The ocean inspires me to do what I truly love and live a full life surrounded by the sea. I pour all my passion in my Ocean Arts and will share the stoke with every oceanlover around the globe"
I'm particularly a fan of Eva's larger works, like the ocean resin shown here, as they are big enough to be prominently displayed on a wall and eye-catching enough to deserve to have that space devoted to it.

Kristina Vanderwater

Maui Sunset Resin Artwork by Kristina Vanderwater
Kristina Vanderwater spent many years as a professional muralist before getting into resin art. "In 2020 I tried resin for the first time and an instant love affair was formed," she says, "Being able to combine my passion for resin art with the products I've loved creating through the years has ignited a new fire in me making it so I can accomplish my mission to bring personal and sentimental pieces to your home. If you cry a little upon opening your art & even better!"
Art like the large-scale Maui Sunset would definitely do the trick there.

Teresa White

Ocean-inspired Resin Candle Holder by Teresa White
I love a good three dimensional splash. I'm also kind of in awe of a good three dimensional splash as I have no idea how to attain that effect.
So this Ocean-inspired Resin Candle Holder by Teresa White really caught my eye. And since I am also a fan of candles, this one really works for me.

Jordan Culp

Beach Inspired Coffee Mug by Jordan Culp
Okay, so this Beach Inspired Coffee Mug by Jordan Culp is one of the coolest things I've seen lately. Being a big coffee drinker myself I have a pretty good collection of coffee mugs. And to see one that has been created using ocean resin and sand? Well, let's just say that I'm a big, big fan!

Jen Bowen

Dark and Deep by Jen Bowen
I love the stark contrasts of Dark and Deep by Jen Bowen. It reminds me of those fantastic black beaches in Maui that have been formed from crushed lava (if you haven't seen them in person, you really should as they are spectacular). And those are definitely ocean scenes worth depicting in resin. Thanks Jen!

Michael Garis

Handmade Folding Wine Table by Michael Garis
"I saw a picture of a wine table and thought to myself, 'I can make that,'" says Michael Garis, "Well, I'm like a lot of people and have said that about many things and never did anything about it. So this time I made myself make this for my wife because I knew she would love it. I made some mistakes along the way but in the end it amazed me that I made such a great looking piece."
After that, Michael was on a roll. Now he makes lots of wood and resin furnite like this Handmade Folding Wine Table. This is really a great table for a day of enjoying some wine at the beach... or enjoying a day of wine while wishing you were at the beach.

Annette

Resin Wave Sculpture by Annette
“I live on the Gold Coast Australia. I love creating unique art pieces mainly inspired by the ocean,” says artist Annette. I’ve never been to the Gold Coast, but I hear it’s pretty great and that it would naturally be a huge inspiration of any beach artist. I am absolutely in love with this Resin Wave Sculpture that she has created. The crisp curl of it combined with the bubbling details… incredible!

CK Amoy

Manta Rays and Jellyfish Nightlight by CK Amoy
When I was a kid, nightlights were pretty boring: just a little bulb to prevent you from tripping as you made your way to the bathroom at night. But when I was a kid artists like CK Amoy weren't around.
I love how CK has used resin to create such a wonderful underwater scene. And the way that the light shines up from the depths? Wonderful!

Nick DeMao

Redwood Live Edge Epoxy Resin Patio Table by Nick DeMao
"Nothing beats making sawdust on the weekends," says Nick DeMao, "Like golf, you're only playing against yourself when it comes to woodworking. Every step must be carefully measured and dissected to ensure that at the end of the process you have a product worth selling."
You can certainly see that level of care when you check out one of Nick's wonderful wood and resin tables. I love how he uses the natural features of the wood to create the shoreline into which the resin oceans flow.
Absolutely beautiful.

Adina Clark

Ocean Resin Sunset Wood Coasters by Adina Clark
I love when a resin artist gets a little bold with the colors, like in Ocean Resin Sunset Wood Coasters by Adina Clark. I love how the ocean rolls into the yellows and purples of a setting sun in the sky. Really great.

Carissa Natalewicz

Ocean and Beach by Carissa Natalewicz
I love the detail of works like Ocean and Beach by Carissa Natalewicz. The way she uses the resin to create waves rolling toward the shoreline is just amazing to me. Like a lot of artists on Etsy, Carissa’s journey into art (including beach resin art) began with a wedding. “I began making wedding-related gifts in 2016 for my sister’s engagement,” she says, “The joy that I felt when creating them inspired me to open up my Etsy shop.” And I, for one am glad that she did.

Sue Tukums

Sea Glass Mermaid by Sue Tukums
Oh my! Just look at that mermaid, would you? Like many other resin artists, Sue Tukums often incorporates broken glass into her art. I love the detail that this technique brings to works like Sea Glass Mermaid — her tail is made of crushed glass of different colors and the effect is lovely. The mermaid is first hand-painted, then the glass is applied, which is then covered in resin. Says Sue, “I’ve always loved to paint, but the first time I threw glass on top of a canvas, I was hooked!” And that enthusiasm for her medium really shows.

Julie

19″ x 23″ Beach Glass Panel by Julie
I love this style of resin work, sort of a 3 dimensional collage with shells and beach glass, which characterizes Julie’s work. This piece almost looks like a handful of ocean items has been thrown and captured midair. Says Julie of her seashells in resin, “I’ve always collected shells on the Cape with my mom, it is one of my favorite memories ever since I was a little girl. Putting special shells and beach glass into frames is a great way to keep memories alive.”

Cathy Michael

Swimming Fish by Cathy Michael
Another artist who brings a mixed media feel to resin art, Cathy Michael creates many pieces of art in this medium. In addition to her beach-themed works, she also makes some really beautiful resin sunflowers and roses that you should check out. For her beach works, she often incorporates items which she has found herself on the beaches of New Jersey. She says,”I enjoy beachcombing and hunting for shells, sea glass and driftwood, then turning them into a beautiful works of art! My creations reflect my passions.”

Kim and Robin

Glass Ocean Sunset by Kimbin
Kim and Robin are two sisters who create their artwork together under the name Kimbin. Together they create a whole lot of pretty impressive pieces of art, such as this Glass Ocean mural. I love this sort of combination of hand-painting and resin. Just look at the way this piece combines the painted technique for the palm tree while encasing seashells in resin for the beach. The sisters say, “The water has always been our joy and inspiration! We love all things coastal!”

Janet Martin

Sea Glass Wave Mosaic by Janet Martin
Janet Martin is an artist who really has perfected the art of the wave, as can be seen with this Sea Glass Wave Mosaic. I love this sort of thing where the effect is almost like a stained-glass window, and I love how this wave is see-through and the way that it wraps around a lone shell.

Beth Sautner

Bamboo Lazy Susan Ocean by Beth Sautner
Artist Beth Sautner’s workspace in Ormond By the Sea, FL comes complete with an ocean view, so it’s no surprise that she is inspired to create works of art with a beach theme. In addition to her wonderful resin work, like this Bamboo Lazy Susan Ocean, she also makes some really fantastic hand-painted glasses with a beach theme. “I am putting my good beach vibes into every item you receive! Do you hear a Beach Boys song in the background?”

Kara Ivey

While resin artist Kara Ivey creates a whole lot of unique items with an oceany resin on them (such as coasters, keychains and earrings) my favorite of all of this ocean resin art has to be this amazing Blue Resin Ocean Heart. I love heart-shaped art to begin with, then add in the beautiful ocean resin, but to top it off: I absolutely love the black beach. It brings to mind memories of Maui!

Anna Paschenko

Sea & Ocean Round Panel by Anna Paschenko
While Anna Paschenko’s main artwork is her trademark line of handmade glass geometric terrariums (seriously, you should check those things out, they’re beautiful!) she also makes some pretty stunning beach resin art pieces. Using the same lead-free soldering techniques used to create her terrariums, she also creates the frames for her resin work such as this Sea & Ocean Round Panel.

Donna Nardi

Turquoise Octopus Sun Catcher by Donna Nardi
“Most days you can find me with glue on my hands and glitter in my hair. I love it!” says artist Donna Nardi. She has perfected the art of the suncatcher, as can be seen with this work Turquoise Octopus Sun Catcher. Not only does this piece feature a wonderful resin Octopus, but the octopus has also been encased with a collection of shells from San Diego beaches.

Christie Minalga

Ocean Jewelry Box by Christie Minalga
“Resin art has allowed me to let go of such tight control of my work and let the colors flow and come to life in a more organic way,” says artist Christie Minalga. What I especially like about her work is that she applies the beach resin theme to a wide variety of things that you wouldn’t ordinarily think to include it on. Like the bottoms of jewelry drawer trays or the backing board of a curio cabinet or, as in the photo above, the top of an Ocean Jewelry Box. I fell in love with this one the moment I saw it.

Eleonora

3D Mermaid Swim by Eleonora
One of the great things about resin art is that it has dimensionality. And depending on the artist, that can be taken pretty far. And artist Eleaonora has done some amazing things with resin for this 3D Mermaid Swim. I love how the ripples have been created in the water using resin, meanwhile the mermaid’s tail comes out of the water. Beautiful! Says Eleonora,”While creating beach scenes, I mentally dive into the cool and fresh water in the middle of hot summer.” Just like this mermaid.

Kelsey Brauer

Resin Ocean Serving Board by Kelsey Brauer
Artist Kelsey Brauer has perfected a wonderful style of ocean resin art which she applies to all sorts of projects, like this Resin Ocean Serving Board. I really like how she often features a layer of clear resin below the blue resin. Whereas many ocean resin pieces evoke the feel of a crashing wave, her pieces have the feel of the ocean retreating after the wave has crashed, leaving behind that shallow layer of water that’s so perfect for skimboarding

Carol McCabe

Mermaid on Vintage Skim Board by Carol McCabe
I’m always stunned by the amount of amazing artistic talent working on Etsy, and then I see something truly amazing, like this Mermaid on Vintage Skim Board by Carol McCabe. I mean, just look at the incredible detail of this work: glass, resin and seashells have all been brought together atop a skim board to create something really beautiful. And using repurposed materials to boot! Says McCabe, “All of my wall artwork is done in the spirit of repurposing and saving beautiful vintage discards and creating fabulous modern art for today.”

Angela

Beach Bookworm Bookmark by Angela
“From my childhood I began to collect small marine treasures that the waves brought to the seashore,” says artist Angela. She uses those small treasures (gathered from the shores of the Mediterranean fishing village that she calls home) in the formation of a wide range of beach-themed projects. I love the originality of this Beach Bookworm Bookmark which showcases a tiny shell in a resin ocean.

Jamie Marcellus

Whale Shark Trinket Dish by Jamie Marcellus
Knowing that Long Beach, California has a world-class aquarium, it seems perfectly natural to me that a Long Beach-based artist like Jamie Marcellus would create art objects like this fantastic Whale Shark Trinket Dish. I don’t know if they have whale sharks at the Long Beach Aquarium, but I love how this particular whale shark swims along the bottom of this dish. Says Marcellus, “The astounding beauty of the natural world never ceases to amaze me and I am here to share some treasures.”

Vicky Smith

Stepping It Sideways, Broken Glass Crab by Vicky Smith
You may have seen Stepping It Sideways by Vicky Smith on another page of this site devoted to crab-themed artwork. I love this one so much that I’m featuring it and Vicky again! The way that she has used broken glass here is something that I find truly amazing. The repurposed glass not only makes up the crab’s body, but also the swirling water that surrounds it. And the resin coating not only prevents the glass from cutting someone, the resin is also used to great effect to create those wonderful bubbles. I love this one! Says Smith, “I am most inspired when I am exploring different techniques and mediums; creating something new out of something old”

Renee Randall

Family of Sea Turtles by Renee Randall
ARTISTBIO

Kirsty Penny

Ocean Drive, Blue Coasters by Kirsty Penny
Not only do I love the beautiful abstract art of Ocean Drive, Blue Coasters, but I also love the amazing attention to detail that you can see that artist Kirsty Penny has put into their construction. These coasters are not just the artwork, but they are also carefully trimmed in gold and backed with cork. A perfect addition to any beach-themed room!

Kathy Kuchta

Sandy Beach & Sea Turtles Earrings by Kathy Kuchta
Artist Kathy Kuchta creates some pretty amazing things with glass and resin (check out the wave sculptures on her page, they are terrific!) and I love how each piece seems pretty unique to her. For instance, this set of Sandy Beach & Sea Turtles earrings is both wonderful and unique (and uses real sand!). Says Kuchta, “I have been obsessed with glass for decades and many of my pieces have been displayed in collections around the world.”

Karim Castillo

Beach Scape Gift Tags by Aria Marli
Artist Karim Castillo creates some pretty unique items in several different media and styles (I particularly like her mermaid pillows!). I love the originality involved in these Beach Scape Gift Tags. She’s got the ocean feel of the resin just right, and who wouldn’t love to receive a gift wherein the tag is just as worth saving as the gift?

Sarah Kay

Shetland Islands Beach Sand Buttons by Sarah Kay
I always love when someone creates something unique. And artist Sarah Kay has definitely done that with these Shetland Island Beach Sand Buttons. Actually, she has a whole collection of rather unique resin artworks, and these resin buttons depict tiny beaches made from sand gathered at the same small beach featured in the Scottish TV series Shetland.

Linda Wright

Serpetine Starfish by Linda Wright
I really like these sorts of beach-themed suncatchers using sea glass and beach glass embedded in resin. And artist Linda Wright makes some really spectacular looking suncatchers, like this Serpentine Starfish. I am really drawn to the way this piece curves up and around in a wave-like pattern and features shells and starfish.

Wilma Michel

Fish in a Wave on Driftwood by Wilma Michel
I think that I’ve already mentioned that I like when artists do something unique. Well, artist Wilma Michel does a whole lot of unique things with her resin sculptures. For Fish in a Wave on Driftwood she has created an amazing 3 dimensional work out of resin. The way that this wave comes crashing over the driftwood is just spectacular.

Kelly Daszynski

Dolphin Tides by Kelly Daszynski
First off, I really like the tagline artist Kelly Dszynski uses for her store: “Welcome to Sky30, an art studio where I create with wood, water, pigment & joy.” And beyond that, the art is great too! Take for instance this resin ocean painting called Dolphin Tides, which adds a twist to the resin beach scene in the form of a pod of dolphins swimming away through the waves.

Marjorie Samero

Purple Seahorse Suncatcher by Marjorie Samero
In addition to her trademark (and really remarkable) stepping stones, artist Marjorie Samero also has some tremendous resin art pieces. For instance, check out this Purple Seahorse Suncatcher (and did I mention that I love purple?). It’s also great that she creates these suncatchers using repurposed glass — from the glass that she uses to create those remarkable stepping stones I mentioned earlier. It’s a win/win!

Amy

Beach Wave Coat Hook by Amy
Beach Wave Coat Hook takes an everyday, functional item and turns it into a work of art. And there are many such example in artist Amy’s catalog, where she uses beautiful resin ocean designs to spice up the ordinary. Be sure to check out her ocean-themed wine caddies!

Anton Matejek

Ocean Wave Clock by Anton Matejek
“There is just something about the reveal of an ink petri dish or the glossy finish of a poured resin ocean scape or abstract creation,” says artist Anton Matejek. I agree, and I love the great detail he brings to creations like this Ocean Wave Clock. For instance you can tell from his catalogue of work, that he takes the time to get the colors just right. I love this particular clock, where the blues go from the light blue near the shore to the dark blue of the deep sea. And choosing to use a clock with white hands really fits this design perfectly.

Kerry Thompson

Beach Portal by Kerry Thompson
Artist Kerry Thompson creates some really wonderful ocean-themed resin pieces. I especially like the portals that she creates, like the above Beach Portal. It’s perfectly executed and perfectly named. Can’t you just feel yourself looking out a boat’s portal as you look at this piece? I know I can.

Elena Zernova

3D Seascape by Elena Zernova
Resin art allows for the creation of 3 dimensional art in a way that no other medium can. Artist Elena Zernova creates several such pieces, like this 3D Seascape using resin, stones and sand within a wooden shadowbox. The coastal scene this creates is truly something special.

Elise Byron

Wooden Whale by Elise Byron
How cute is this whimsical Wooden Whale by artist Elise Byron? Too cute, that’s how cute. Byron has several pieces of resin ocean art wherein she blends the beauty of a fantastic acrylic and resin piece of art and marries that with a fun elements such as a mermaid tail, unicorns or glitter. How can you beat that?

Debbie Rathbun

Starfish and Shells Beach Mirror by Debbie Rathbun
Artist Debbie Rathbun does a lot of creative things with resin, from ornaments to flameless candles to mirrors. For instance for this Starfish and Shells Beach Mirror, she has used resin’s natural ability to pull mixed media together and created a wonderful coastline out of a heartshaped mirror. What a great scene to be reminded of the ocean as you’re getting ready for the day.

Anita

Shells & Starfish by Anita
As a seashell collector and seashell artist myself, I always think that it’s great when an artist uses seashells that they’ve found themselves. Which is what Naples, Florida-based artist Anita does. She and her husband go on regular beachcombing excursions to find the items for her artwork. She also uses reclaimed barnwood for the frames (which I also think is great) and she pulls it all together to create works like this Shells and Starfish suncatcher which features sea glass and seashells in resin.

Ree Martin

Curling Wave with Starfish by Ree Martin
“As a little girl my dad took me fishing every weekend in Boston Harbor, then we would pick an island to clean the fish on. We always found time to explore the ancient islands looking for arrow heads or shells and yes sea glass,” says artist Ree Martin. Now as a grownup, she combs those same shores for shells and glass. And she makes wonderful pieces of beach art, like this amazing Curling Wave with Starfish, which wraps beach glass seashells and sand into resin. The results are always fantastic.

Whitney

Nantucket Crab by Whitney
“The beach and ocean played a huge role in my childhood and still does to this day,” says artist Whitney. And the proof is her great line of ocean-inspired resin works like this fun Nantucket Crab. All of her resin beach scenes feature a nice balance of the “beach” and the “ocean.”

Heather Hall

Beach Resin Welcome Sign by Heather Hall
If you've got a beach house (or, you dream of having a beach house, then you need to work on your beach house decor. One of the great things about resin art is that it feels right in a beach house environment. So if you want to welcome people to your beach house, then a Welcome sign in resin is just the ticket.

Constance Guerra

Pink Flamingos by Constance Guerra
"My experience of growing up around the Chesapeake Bay created an appreciation of nature and the beauty of the coast, all creation, fur, fin and feathers," says resin artist Constance Guerra, "I love to create works that have mood, rich color and dramatic illusion of light in them. The majority of my eclectic collection is coastal."
I'm a big fan of the way that Constance uses crushed glass to "paint" a picture. It's beautiful and the resin work really pulls it all together.

Wietske Koelma

Surfoard Resin on Oak by Wietske Koelma
"After remodeling the house I found myself with a lot of waste materials, especially wood. Pieces that are too small to use for the remodel project but too big to throw away," says Wietske Koelma That's when I decided to recycle these pieces of 'waste' into art. And so my journey began, researching ways to model the wood and making art inspired by my greatest love.. the ocean!"
And pieces like this resin-covered oak surfboard really demonstrate Witske's art in a great way — after all, a surfboard and a resin ocean just naturally go together. And in this case, it is done really well.

Sue Mazoochi

Washing Waves Abstract by Sue Mazoochi
"I live at the beach and am inspired by the ocean," says resin artist Sue Mazoochi, "I love watching the waves wash up onto the shore. I try to incorporate the peace and serenity the beach gives me in my work"
I, for one, believe that Sue achieves that goal in her work. Creating oceans of resin is not as easy as some people might think. It requires the right artistic eye to pull it off, and I have always been impressed by the oceans that Sue creates.

Evie Lin

Mermaid Cave by Evie Lin
If you've read much of Seashell Madness you know that I love a good ocean-themed abstract painting. And when someone does a really good one in resin — like this Mermaid Cave by Evie Lin — I get really excited. This is the kind of abstract that can convince those who aren't fond of abstracts that maybe they should be fond of abstracts.

Lauren O'Meara

Ocean-Themed Dip Bowl by Lauren O'Meara
I was really jazzed when I saw Lauren O'Meara's line of ocean-themed dishware. I've always loved it when an artist combines beautiful wood with ocean-themed resin. I just think that's a wonderful combo. And what Lauren has done with pieces like this Ocean-Themed Dip Bowl just blows me away.

Robby Haugen

Lazy Susan Turntable by Robby Haugen
Huntington Beach-based resin artist Robby Haugen has really mastered the art of the resin ocean. As I've mentioned before, this form of art can be really tricky, but Robby has a great eye for it.
"I was born and raised in sunny Huntington Beach, Ca. I have a passion for painting and creating pieces that are inspired by the beach life or street art."

Kelsey Brauer

Ocean Wave Wine Glass by Kelsey Brauer
What goes really well with a glass of wine?
Well, I suppose that cheese or maybe pasta does, but that's not what I mean. I think that what goes really well with a glass of wine is the beach. I'm guessing that resin artist Kelsey Brauer feels the same, that's why she's created these really awesome Ocvean Wave Wind Glasses.

Jekaterina Keti

Modern Beach Wall Clock by Jekaterina Keti
The thing that I love about the work of Jekaterina Keti is that she is an artist who is drawn to unusual shapes. For instance, there are quite a few resin art clocks out there, but I doubt that you'll find any others in the shapes that Jekaterina uses. Like this Modern Beach Wall Clock. How cool is that?

JoJo Griffin

Resin Jellyfish by JoJo Griffin
"I adore the rich and vibrantly colored ink and the richness of the concentrated pigment I add to my resin," says resin artist JoJo Griffin, "Using resin to paint the beach and waves is my favorite thing to do!"
And I'm glad that's true. I love that JoJo uses shapes of ocean figures in conjunction with her resin art (and that she goes for something like a jellyfish, which is fairly unique among resin artist out there!)

Tina Bupp

Ocean Resin and Sand Pendant by Tina Bupp
You can make some pretty cool things with a little sand and some resin. Take this Ocean Resin and Sand Pendant by Tina Bupp. Here she has created this fully formed ocean scene all within this small space of a pendant. Really impressive!

Christy Miller

Resin Ocean with Rocky Beach by Christy Miller
I'll admit it. I like black and white. Yes, I like colors and vibrancy in the art that I choose, but I also love the artistry of just depending on some great contrast to make your statemen.
So I was immediately drawn to Resin Ocean with Rocky Beach by Christy Miller. Now, Christy does wonderful resin oceans in deep and beautiful blues as well, but something about the stark black theme of this piece of resin art really — and I mean really — grabbed me.

Teri Harris

Ocean-themed Balancing Wine Bottle Holder by Teri Harris
Resin artist Teri Harris has a whole collection of wonderful ocean-inspired resin works (she has a flourescent turtle that is way cool!). When I say this wonderful Ocean-themed Balancing Wine Bottle Holder I knew that I had found an artist who was right for me. This holder is beautiful, unique and practical. Yes!

Barbara Yamasato

Sparkling Ocean Wave by Barbara Yamasato
"I live in Hilo Hawai’i in a jungle," says resin artist Barbara Yamasato, "I use lots of sea glass, driftwood & seashells I find on the shores of Hawaii." And she uses those hand-gathered material to really great effect. Check out her Ocean-themed Balancing Wine Bottle Holder and you'll know exactly what I mean.

Alina Tkach

Crystal Resin Ring Holder Dish by Alina Tkach
It's always fun when something with a beachy theme is also practical. Take this Crystal Resin Ring Holder Dish by Alina Tkach. I just love the blue sparkly nature which brings to mind the oceans depths. And you use it to hold your rings. Win-win.

Anna Bowers

Resin Beach Guitar by Anna Bowers
"My grandmother was an artist. I fondly recall her painting at the kitchen table. She loved anything crafty," say resin artist Anna Bowers, "She inspired me to pursue art as a means of relaxation. I've spent a lot of time perfecting my technique and will not let a project leave my hands until I'm convinced it's perfect."
That dedication to perfection really shines through in Anna's artwork. And I love that she manages to take on a few unconventional themes. I mean, I don't believe that I've seen a resin ocean guitar before. Sure, I've seen surboards and dolphins and crabs, but a guitar? Definitely a first. And I like firsts.

Kim Boquel

Beach Wave by Kim Boquel
"My inspiration comes from the beach and all the amazing treasures you can find there. I love the beach and I love what I do," says artist Kim Boquel. And she has a wonderful collection of ocean-themed resin art made with crushed glass to sculpt crabs, sea turtle, palm trees and more — like this amazing Beach Wave! I'm a fan.

Osman Alkan

Northern Lights Necklace by Osman Alkan
"As an Architect, Sculptor and a Luthier I always had passion about exotic woods and wood working," says Osman Alkan, "Working with wood is a way of life and I am enjoying every second of it."
And you can really see how seriously Osman takes these projects when you see a piece like the Northern Lights Necklace. It is a wonderful little piece of wood, upon which has been artfully place a crashing wave of resin. Beautiful!

Kara Ivey

Round Coral Reef Resin Beach by Kara Ivey
Kara Ivey has a wide selection of ocean resin works, but I've got to say that my favorites are works like this Round Coral Reef Resin Beach wherein she goes beyond just a resin ocean. Here we have a whole lot of color and a great depiction of a reef colony of undersea life.

Lauren Carstensen

Sea Turtle Cutting Board by Lauren Carstensen
Based along the Florida coast, Lauren Carstensen describes herself as "Just a normal person slightly obsessed with glitter and the Ocean." This is a description that I can identify with (I did start a website called Seashell Madness after all).
I love all of the resin ocean items that Lauren has created, like this wonderful Sea Turtle Cutting Board. Now, there are a lot of cutting boards that have gone with a resin ocean theme, but to have one that is shaped like a sea turtle... well, that's extra cool in my book.

Porsha Twine

Name in Beach Resin Letters by Porsha Twine
Wouldn't you like to have your name spelled out in ocean? That's what resin artist Porsha Twine does with her series of Name in Beach Resin Letters. What a wonderful look with the sand and shells coming up to the resin blue of the shoreline. Neat!

Samar Gabal

Colorful Ocean Resin Coasters by Samar Gabal
Colors. Colors Colors.
After all, who said that you have to stick strictyly with blues when you're depicting oceans?
These Colorful Ocean Resin Coasters by Samar Gabal have to be among my favorites when we're talking about ocean-themed coasters.

Brian Orr

I Followed My Heart and it Led Me to the Beach by Brian Orr
I just love the little sayings that are combined with the ocean resin in the works of Brian Orr.
Take this one, for instance: "I followed my heart and it led me to the beach."
That's me all over.

Lisa Price

Ocean Resin Seascape by Lisa Price
"Once I started with resin I was totally hooked," says Lisa Price, "Resin delivers such depth and dimension giving the 3D effects that gives that glass-like finish. The possibilities that can be created with this medium are truly endless."
And I love that Lisa doesn't necessarily go with the obvious with her ocean resin designs. Like the wonderful Ocean Resin Seascape — what a beautiful abstract representation of the ocean and all its life. Amazing!

Susanna Carrazana

Resin Ocean iPhone 12 Case by Susanna Carrazana
I'm a big fan of putting great art on practical things. Artist Susanna Carrazana seems to understand this as well as has a big collection of resin ocean themed practical items, like jar lids, cutting boards, coaster and this really cool iPhone case.
Take the ocean with you wherever you go.

Anna Miller

Waterdrop Signature Clock by Anna Miller
This Waterdrop Signature Clock by Anna Miller definitely lands of my list of cool and beautiful things.
There are plenty of great clocks out there that utilize an ocean resin theme, an I think that they're awesome. But with this unique waterdrop shape, Anna has crossed over into super awesome!

Nathalie Van

Turmoil, Resin Painting by Nathalie Van
I really enjoy when an artist combines elements that you wouldn't expect to go together and achieves something fantastic and new. That's the feeling that I get when I look at Turmoil by Nathalie Van. Not just a resin ocean, but a full painting of a beachside scene depicted using resin.
I am a big fan of Nathalie's work. Big fan.
"With my paintings I try to capture that feeling of being loved, safe and peaceful," she says, "I now spend my days painting, and creating happy new memories with my family and friends. It is so exciting to unwrap a blank canvas and to visualize all the possible creations that could be."
MORE Ocean Resin Art
