This is actually a batik I made. Experiment to see traditional crafting meets subclture. Any suggestions for the next one?
Wow wow! I like it a lot. Asian pattern with old Nintendo style! How do you use the batik?
Thank you for your comment @akipponn!
Batik normally uses for sarong, around 2m, which man and woman wrap around their lower body wear like a skirt.
Can also use as bath towel, pareo at beach, baby rap, etc. So many use!
Wow! This work look very beautiful and creative!
If it's batik, does that mean the 'white sections' have got wax on ?
The type of batik I'm familiar with has a 'crackling' effect. So will you be doing that as well to your piece ?
Thank you for your comment @cryptocariad!
Batik has many way of making it. In Malaysia where I am staying, don't dip the entire fabric into pigments.
In stead, it is done exactly like a water color painting using the frame to pull every edges to make it tight, use brush to color and can do blend, tone and all those techniques. So I draw a line with wax, then colored in with any colors I want. The white boxes will be kept white together with the waxed lines.
I haven't done cracking technique yet, wish I could try one day!!!
