Epoxy Art by
Jorge Nascimento
created with upcycled electronic parts
Light Impressions 1
This art piece was inspired by a photo I took at Great Smoky Mountains . There's no paint used - it's created by adding pigments to epoxy resin and coaxing the self-leveling epoxy into the shapes I want. Some of the tree trunks were created in a Bas Relief matter, therefore they stick out above the rest of the canvas.
It includes a floating poplar frame which I made, painted, and coated with a water-based scratch resistant urethane.
Poppy
Poppy was created by adding pigments to epoxy resin. There's multiple layers of epoxy to create the effect. Plus I upcycle electronic parts and use them in the artwork to add depth and dimension. The stamens are made from electrical computer wires cut to size and stripped to expose the copper.

Sunflower
Sunflower was created by adding pigments to epoxy resin and coaxing the self-leveling epoxy into the shapes I want. There's multiple layers of epoxy to create the effect. Plus I upcycle electronic parts and use them in the artwork to add depth and dimension. The flower center is made from internal computers parts. In this case I used 340 capacitors to create the Fibonacci effect.

This artwork can be hung on a wall or displayed on a table - it makes for a great conversation piece.
Lily Pond
I call this art piece, Lily Pond. There's no paint used - it's created by adding pigments to epoxy resin and coaxing the self-leveling epoxy into the shapes I want. There's multiple layers of epoxy to create the effect. Plus I upcycle electronic parts and use them in the artwork to add depth and dimension. The flowers and stamen are made from internal computers parts including air-foil shields from VGA cables as well as yellow electrical computer wires.
