Design and Paint an Original Silk Batik
Location: Oakville Art Society, 560 Bronte Road, Oakville
Time: 10:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.
Create your completely original 9″×12″ batik art on wild silk. Paint your own design and learn the wax process to create the exquisite batik texture. You will work on the highest grade silk, specifically suited for batik. Your outcome will be a piece suitable to mount on the canvas of your choice (9″×12″ gallery deep or 11″ ×14″ regular) after the workshop (and therefore not included in the workshop fee.) Alternatively, you may later opt to stretch it under glass with paspartu/paper frame. All that will be left for you to complete at home is to iron off the wax before stretching it to suit your preferred presentation mode; you will leave with exact instructions for the specific technique you select, and everything you need to know regarding the aftercare of your treasured piece.
