This is a process I've been wanting to try since Kanuga last spring. It is called Skillet Batik ala Carol Ann Sherman (you can see a free video demo at Jerry's Artarama). It involves using wax as a resist, painting on rice paper with watercolor then ironing the wax off. I've had this photo I took at a street festival for a while trying to decide what to do with it, so you see the result. This was my first attempt and I enjoyed it - learning dos and don'ts as I went along. Will definitely try it again.
