The process of watercolor wax batik will be explained, demonstrated and practiced in this hands-on, intensive workshop. Learn how to select the best photos to work from, plan your painting, build the multiple layers of wax and watercolor and then do the final batiking and the "reveal."
​
In order to make it easier to learn the process, all participants will paint the some painting. The workshop fee includes a fee of $20 to cover the specialty materials provided by the instructor.

Topics will include:
  • Recognizing Value Changes (light to dark)
  • Review of Color — color harmonies, analogous & complementary colors
  • Planning Your Painting; First Wax Application —- and Initial Wash of Watercolor
  • Continuing with the planning/diagramming process
  • Building Up the Layers
  • Batiking your painting
  • The "Reveal" — removing the wax, sharing the results
lf time permits, we will talk about how to proceed using your own photos, so bring your photos — printed both in color and in black and white. Photos should be printed on plain copier paper -  bigger is better than smaller! Make sure your photos are not too dark— and have good light/highlight areas. Photos with good light from an angle are best.

Specialty supplies provided:
  • Micron pen
  • Japanese/Thai papers
  • Wax and  brushes for use in the wax
  • Rolls of newsprint
The pen, brushes and samples of Japanese/Thai papers will belong to the artist participants to take home with them at the end of the workshop.
Supplies to share:
l have pots for melting wax. l’ll bring my iron also —  we will need several of these for the end of the class. Newspapers - - I use clean
newsprint next to the painting as l iron, and use layers of newspapers outside that. lt takes a lot of newspapers to soak up the wax as we iron it off.   lf you have extra newspapers, bring a stack!
Participants will need to bring:
  • Watercolor palette
  • Artist's quality watercolor paint & brushes
  • Old bath towel
  • Set of highlighter markers (7 colors at least)
  • Masking tape
  • Hair dryer
  • Painting board with freezer paper taped to one side (board should be at least 12" by 14")
  • Paper towels, Kleenex, Rags or Apron as desired
Participants should have knowledge and experience in  watercolor. If you are a newbie in watercolor,  Email Linda at showandtellartist@gmail.com before registering.
