‘Cyclamen’
2003Framed original
12" x 10" including frame Sold
I always like to do my flower Batiks on the finest smooth Egyptian cotton which gives me the delicacy I’m after, as well as being able to get the fineness in the cracks.
To get that lovely Batik ‘marbled’ effect, I put the piece in the fridge, which gives me really fine cracks. Then, when it is nice and cold, I screw the cloth up quite hard and then really work subsequent dye colours into the cracks in white background, with a brush.
Sadly this piece is sold but if you would like to talk about commissioning one like it, email me
