Care Instructions

Caring for Your Resin Art

  • Resin is an art and each piece is made by hand from the heart and soul
    of the artist. As such, there may be small imperfections in the piece
    and that is what adds to the charm and uniqueness of each piece.
  • Display your art out of direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Not
    intended for outdoor use.
  • Keeping resin pieces clean is very simple: just treat it like glass. Use a
    gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth and polish as you would glass.
  • Resin may slightly discolor over time. The resin used is derived from
    museum conservation-grade materials and UV stabilizer that helps to
    delay natural ambering which may appear over time. Some factors may
    cause this to happen faster, such as prolonged exposure to direct
    sunlight or extreme heat, storing in a dark unventilated space or
    exposure to smoke.
  • When storing the best material to use against the surface of your art piece is glassine art paper (parchment paper, freezer paper or kraft paper works too, but be aware they are not acid free). Glassine art paper is smooth, glossy, acid-free and will protect the resined surface without scratching or sticking. Once your piece is protected with glassine, you can pad it with poly foam to provide cushioning. You can further pad your piece with fabric and cardboard or foam core for extra protection.
  • If you choose to use bubble wrap, DO NOT use it directly on your artwork as a first layer - use it as exterior padding only. Always make sure the flat side is facing in and the bubble side is facing out, otherwise there is a chance the bubbles may leave an impression.
  • Do not store in a hot attic or cold basement.
  • Most importantly, enjoy your new art piece!

  • Hello! I’m Patty, located in Northcentral Wisconsin where I create abstract collage art inspired by the wisdom of the natural world.

    Each piece begins in silence. Just torn paper, instinctive composition, and the energy of what wants to come through.

    I was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and grew up as a shy child, often dealing with the challenges of bullying. During those tough times writing, poetry and art helped me cope through high school years.

    My path to becoming an artist wasn't a straight one. In the 1970s my life followed the traditional route of marriage and family. This was a rewarding phase of my life, but it put my art dreams on hold. After my kids were grown, I reconnected with art and dove back into creating.


    Finding inspiration in nature — animals, birds, flowers and landscapes keeps me grounded. Beginning with collage papers hand-printed using a gel plate and sometimes adding cut and crushed glass on the canvas, then covering it all with resin to bring out the details of the papers and glass.

  • My art is an invitation to you to bring nature’s beauty and wonder into your everyday environment, through my perspective, and offer unique talking points that carry special meaning to you.

    Outside of my art, I enjoy reading, good movies, watching football, and spending time with family either traveling or sitting by the campfire. These interests provide balance and enrich my life.

    I create my art to spark different feelings in you. To become a cherished part of your life, home, inspire creativity in you, or connect you to a broader beauty of the world.

    Whether displayed as a focal point or part of a curated collection, you have a chance to pause, reflect, and engage with the subtle layers of nature rendered in glass and paper.
