Framed Batik Painting- Women Walking with Pots on Their Head: Green

Description

Batik is an original handcrafted form which is highly cherished across Africa. Each piece of African batik art uses an ancient traditional craft of working with wax and dyes. The effects are achieved through the principle of wax and water repelling each other, called resist dyeing. Prints range from abstract geometry to figurative images and beyond. The designs can range from those of animals, African landscapes to African people in their native environment. The painting is of a herd of elephants walking against the backdrop of the African sunset. The Rectangle wooden carved frame is an added feature which makes the painting stand out and gives the piece a more African feel. Material: Cloth and wood
