Batik Tools Views
Contemporary batik, while owing much to the past, is markedly different from the more traditional and formal styles. For example, the artist may use etching, discharge dyeing, stencils, different tools for waxing and dyeing, or wax recipes with different resist values. They may work with silk, cotton, wool, leather, paper, or even wood and ceramics.
Gutta tips are needed to create a thin line of gutta and resists for your detail of any silk painting. The gutta essentially makes the lines that paint will not pass over. Tips pop right on top of applicator bottle top. Clean immediately after using or plug hole with a needle for later use. Tjanting tools are for applying waxx in batik applications. Melt wax and dip tool scoop in to fill and apply to fabric.
