The writer

Every word here comes from the studio

I am Rengin Wade, a resin artist working from my London studio. My background is in architecture and interior design, which shapes how I think about colour, proportion and space in every piece. Over 750 orders have left this studio, and I teach the craft through private coaching and a published online course.

This journal is where I write it all down: what I have learned about the material, the commissions behind the work, and honest guidance for anyone starting their own resin journey.
