Mother's Day Weekend Workshop: Paint a Koi under Resin!

Celebrate Mom with creative time by the ocean at the Surf City Artisan Fair in Huntington Beach Pier Plaza. Paint a graceful koi on a prepared wood panel, then finish it with a glossy resin coat to create a handmade keepsake that is ready to gift or display. Koi are commonly associated with luck and good fortune, making this project a meaningful choice for anyone. No experience is required. A professional artist and experienced instructor guides each step at an easy pace. The panel is prepped ahead of time so you can jump right into the fun part. Trace the fish using provided stencils to remove the guesswork, then bring it to life with color and clear instruction suitable for beginners and seasoned artists alike. After the painting portion, enjoy a short break to stretch, sip a beverage, browse the artisan fair, or take in the ocean views. Next comes the resin phase, where you will learn how to mix and pour for a smooth, elevated finish. The artwork will be covered with foil to protect the surface while it cures. All supplies are included, such as the prepared panel, acrylic paints, brushes, stencils, resin, mixing tools, gloves, and an apron, along with attentive instruction. Wear clothes that can handle a little splatter, bring water to stay refreshed, and consider a snack or money for nearby food vendors. The resin needs about a day to set. Take the covered piece home, keep it level while it cures, and enjoy a beautiful, finished artwork the next day.
