Last weekend, I went batik painting with a few of my collegues from school. It was a lot of fun! Batik is a traditional Malaysian type of art. Let me explain... It's done on cotton fabric, where wax is poured to outline your picture, then you "paint" inside the waxed outline. It's like water colours, as you just have to dab some paint onto the fabric, and it just runs til the wax part. Hope this is making sense!! Anyway, I made 4 napkins - only RM8 each! A very cool and relaxing thing to do on a Saturday morning! The Batik factory is in Batu which is only about a 15 min car ride from home.
