Artist Bio / Statement

I work in Batik, juxtaposing this ancient, Far East folk tradition with western and contemporary imagery, and presenting it in a fine art form. I use fairly traditional methods, using both bee and paraffin waxes applied by brush on unbleached cotton muslin that has been pretreated in a soda ash bath. I use Dharma brand fiber reactive dyes, but instead of flat dye baths, I apply the dyes with broad, inexpensive brushes, spray bottles, or sponges. I mix all of my colors from the three primaries: lemon yellow, magenta, and turquoise blue.

All of my work is for sale, commission opportunities are welcome, and I can travel for group workshops.

About Tiered Discount Levels

You can combine cotton and rayon clothing & accessories to get the greatest discounts. Your discount is figured on the total number of cotton and rayon items we ship, not how many of each type, style or size. Mix and match them to get the best discount.

Example: adding 4 each of 3 different T-shirts in any sizes will give you the 12+ price on all 12 shirts.
