MEET THE ARTIST
"My name is Naomi and I moved to Ottawa from Barrie, Ontario. I’ve been making art with resin since 2019 and I’m still learning new ways on how to work with resin everyday. I love to make resin art because it allows me to be creative and express myself. I enjoy making unique decorative art as well as functional pieces from wall décor to coasters to notebooks and much more. One of my favourite things about resin is that i get the opportunity to bring people’s vision to life when I am making custom orders."
