Batik Silk Painting

Batik is an Indonesian cloth that traditionally used a manual wax-resist dyeing technique. Intricate batik fabric patterns are known to have existed in 13th century or even earlier. Contemporary batik is different from the more traditional and formal styles. We now have water based resist materials which are easier to use and remove than WAX.
