Inspiration


Inspiration is found in the most interesting places.  I would have never have thought to combine watercolors and batik.  It was done on rice paper.  Starting with the drawing,  Then color by color, using the lightest first, followed by waxing.  It was difficult to see where you had and had not waxes.  Also splattered wax from time to time to get the water effect.

I ordered some rice paper from Amazon and I'm eager to try again.  Maybe lilies, daisies, sunflowers...hmm.
