The batik technique looks great. It gives a curiously appealing look without the viewer being able to figure it out.devotedmomof7https://www.blogger.com/profile/11635978837207269421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3471263212568793332.post-37940161464863025702010-10-09T19:28:22.571-04:002010-10-09T19:28:22.571-04:00Thank you for sharing

I'll be teaching this in The Villages in FLorida in Feb '11 as well as in my studio at the end of Januaary, '11. Watching miskit dry WOULD be less fun than taping, too!

I saw...Hi Sandy, Thanks for your comments earlier. I saw you doing this tape batik quite a while back on the Venetian blinds over the sewing machine and the clap board house. I was super intrigued and curious, tried it on a portrait and found it really fun. I'd rather tear tape than watch miskit dry. I think cheap soft paper tears easily and Arches stands up to the abuse best. Every one should try this. I can see in your portrait the subtle layers you built up. A little patience and look at exceptional results!

I was just immediately drawn to the extra layer of light on her face. Then, when I read farther I saw the square, so that is how not-distracting I found it to be!<br /><br />I, too, would love to be close enough to you to take a workshop. This is wonderful and very, very well done.Watercolors by Susan Roperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15091873961431846148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3471263212568793332.post-64479589222159519112010-10-06T09:46:09.483-04:002010-10-06T09:46:09.483-04:00very special piece sandyvery special piece sandyJANE MINTERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12753128396478756721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3471263212568793332.post-1147423166605868112010-10-06T06:29:48.102-04:002010-10-06T06:29:48.102-04:00Tooo much whining!!!!
