This hands on event will give you the grounding to take up batik at home while creating your own artwork. It is held in the artists home studio so group numbers are small giving plenty of time for individual questions. This 2 day course is for adults only and no experience is required. Dyes are used so wear appropriate clothes/ bring an apron and gloves. Feel free to bring photos on your phone, favourite art cards etc. to provide inspiration for your artwork but designs will be created in the workshop following an introduction to the batik medium and with guidance from your host artist, Angela Wilson.
Day one will introduce you to different methods of dying material using wax resist, you’ll then move onto designing your own art piece.
Day two will see the completion of your artwork and perhaps another quick piece, time allowing.
You’ll leave with an understanding of batik including different wax options as well as your own A3 artwork on cotton.
