​BATIK Mixed Media Art
​by Cheryl Rogers-Tadevich


Batik
 is an ancient form of resist dying. Unwaxed areas of the fabric absorb the dye while the waxed areas resist the dye, preserving the original color of the fabric. More wax is added to dyed areas preserving the new color and the fabric is dipped in another color of die. This process is repeated until the design is completed and the wax can be removed as the designs may evolve using only one or many colors depending on upon the number of times the hot wax is applied and the cloth is dipped into different colored dye baths.
