What To Expect
We will be seated around a table for 1.5 to 2.5 hours, depending on how fast things go with the process. We will begin with a demonstration of the skills involved, and then you will have a chance to do it yourself. 1. Choose a piece of artwork to use for your batik painting, and then trace it onto cloth using a pencil 2. Paint melted wax onto the cloth, following the pencil lines you traced 3. Paint colors onto the cloth 4. Apply a liquid to fix the colors on the cloth 5. The remainder of the process you will do at least 24 hours later at home. I will give you a handout with instructions for that part This may sound like a lot, but it’s going to be a lot of fun!! ;)

5.00We had a very fun and educational experience with Theresia. Our kids (9 and 6) loved learning the technique and our final pieces of art all turned out great. Batik is a very unique style of art and we enjoyed learning and experiencing it in a relaxed setting with a great teacher.
Amazing!

5.00The batik class with Jenn was the highlight of my trip to Bali. I was lucky to have a 1:1 session to learn the steps to making a batik print. Jenn explained each step clearly and let me be creative in my design. If you like crafts, this class is for you. I will definitely do this again when I return.
