About this Event
In conjunction with the 'Spirella Unbound' textile art exhibition at the Broadway Gallery, this one-off workshop gives you the opportunity to have a go at the fun and fascinating art of batik, drawing with hot wax resist on fabric. Working with motifs from fabric used in Spirella garments, you will create a decorative and colourful panel. We will draw out a design using traditional batik tools, then add colour with fabric paints. Time permitting, we will also look at a couple of batik effects using more wax and more colour!
You will take home your finished panel and you may then choose to add further embellishment, make a cushion cover etc or pop it into a picture frame.
Booking essential!
