Batik Drawing with Wax and Color
In the enchanting world of batik, every stroke tells a story, and emotions come to life on the fabric canvas. Drawing with hot wax and applying vibrant colors is not merely an artistic process; it's a dance of emotions captured in wax and brought to life with hues.
The Making of Batik -
How to prepare the Wax Mixture:
Heat a mixture of wax, resin, and sometimes oil in a pot until it becomes liquid. The wax serves as a resist, preventing dye from penetrating certain areas of the fabric.
Material needed :Â
💚SMALL POT & STOVE💚
Used to contain and boil the wax.Â
💚PARAFFIN WAX 💚
Is used to outline the design and mask areas which do not require colour as the design dictates. The brass block is used to imprint the wax as the motif outline.Â
💚RESIN💚
Resin is mixed to the wax.Â
💚COOKING / COCONUT OIL💚Â
Oil is also mixed to the wax to ease the canting process and helps to prevent the sketched wax from breaking apart on the cloth.
