"Tropical Splendour 1" Wax Dye Resist (Batik) On Wood 24"H x 48"W x 0.50"D Description... newest and rather laborious wood batiked painting depicting a tropical oasis landscape. This is a new series that I'm developing called the " Traditional series". It is based on the old traditional folk paintings of the island of Bali, Indonesia. The color palette is minimal where earth tones of Blacks, browns & greys are predominantly used thruout the entire painting. In this particular piece I applied the traditional colorations of the typical Javanese batik sarongs. Different hues of browns & dark umber was my main palette on this piece but I gave it a touch of "sepia-ish" over tone which gives the painting an entirely different visual appeal.
