Clocks

I invite you to My World...

Handmade, unique, and custom clocks attract attention with their original style and character. They are made from various materials and using different artistic techniques. My collection predominantly features clocks made from epoxy resin and wood. There are also clocks where the dial is painted with acrylic paints and then covered with a layer of resin. Additionally, there are clocks created from unconventional materials such as wooden panels, vinyl records, or car hubcaps.

Hour marks, hands, and other elements are carefully selected in terms of color, size, and materials used—wood, acrylic glass, dried flowers, stones, amber, coffee beans, shells, as well as elements made from epoxy resin itself. All of this together creates amazing end results in the form of beautiful clocks, which can serve not only a practical function but also become a unique decorative element that perfectly fits into any interior.

Each of these clocks is one of a kind—unique and original. I create them with passion and great attention to detail, which makes them true works of functional art. They are an excellent choice for those looking for original accessories for their house.

CLOCKS FROM RESIN

Resin clocks are made from epoxy resin, carefully poured into silicone molds, allowing for a variety of shapes and designs. By using different techniques for color blending and the properties of the resin, many surprising and interesting visual effects can be achieved, which attract attention and make each clock unique. The clock face can be decorated with additional elements that perfectly complement the resin background.

PAINTED CLOCKS

'Painted' clocks with epoxy resin, acrylics, or alcohol ink are created on a base of MDF board, plywood, or a regular painting canvas.

The main painting technique I use is pour painting. The final effect of blending colours is achieved by dispersing coloured paints or resin, using a hair dryer or heat gun. Adding a silicone oil results in smaller and larger 'cells' that enhance the overall appearance. In the case of clocks painted with resin, the final effect is thanks to the resin itself, which follows its own rules and has the final say. The resin 'works' and mixes for several hours after pouring, which can completely change the final appearance. Painting with acrylics or using alcohol ink is easier in that the final effect is visible immediately after finishing the painting.

WOOD AND EPOXY EPOXY CLOCKS

Clocks made of wood and resin are various combinations of these two materials, where either resin predominates and wooden elements are embedded in it, or wood is the main component, and resin serves only as a subtle addition that complements the whole.

WOODEN CLOCKS

Wooden clocks are made from pieces of natural wood, roots, wooden disks, plastic imitating wood, plywood, and wooden panels. In other words, wood in every shape and form has been used to create beautiful and unique clocks.

CREATIVE CLOCKS

Creative clocks are an exceptional example of ingenuity and unconventional thinking. These are clocks created through the combination of personal creativity and inspiration drawn from various sources, such as the Internet, nature, or the world around us. Their uniqueness lies in the fact that objects that at first glance have no association with a clock have been used to create them. Yet, the resulting clocks are not only functional but also beautiful, interesting, and original.
