pastermil, to artporn in Phoenix Egg - Thetis Blacker (1981) Batik on cotton

Batik, as in dye-resistant wax? Is it hand-written or stamped?

craftyindividual,

Yep that’s the stuff. I’m not sure how she made it. But have seen a picture:

pastermil,

Ah yes, the Indonesian hand-writing batik technique. She’s depositing dye-resistive wax before then immersing the cloth in dye solution. It’s somewhat similar to tie-dye.
