Batik Batik Batik...
I thought it would be fun to post a picture from each step of the batik process.
Lightest Value and First Wax Layer:
Medium Value Dye:
Darkest Value with Second Layer of Wax:
After Ironing/ Finished Batik:
I decided to experiment with crazing and splattering to make it more "batik-like. I also changed the color choices from the sketch, and I'm happy with the way it turned out!
I had a great time with this project, and I think there will be many more batiks in my future :)

it's so intricate and detailed. I Love it Jillian!!!
Now this is a batik...great job! I am happy to see the process and you are truly mastering the techniques to achieve the textured batik look.
I am happy that you have found a way to work with and around your color/value palette, as well.
