Batik Workshop

An event run independently of Long Acre Arts

Come along to Long Acre Arts in Bingham on October 9th to try this beautiful combination of traditional batik & silk painting.

Traditionally batik is used as a resist method on cotton, and a sticky substance called Gutta is used with silk painting.

However, you get the best of both in these sessions – apply the wax resist lines with hot wax, and then enjoy applying the beautiful vibrant colours of the silk paint!

Skills covered include:

How to prepare your frame

Use of traditional tools

Creating an effective resist with wax

How to apply the paint & create effects

Finishing the product.

No experience necessary.

Please protect clothes as paints may stain.
