Trip to Kelantan - Part 2

It's Batik time!!!

On the next day, we went to Kota Bharu Batik Factory to learn how to make Batik. Well, this is the first time in my life, so I'm very anxious and excited that time!

Before we went into the factory, we have a short visit to the Batik Showroom there. The price for each Batik is quite reasonable, depends on the cloth and materials too.

The view inside the factory

Wow, the batik drew by the worker inside. It is very nice and splendid!

Concentration and attention are much needed during the process.

He can draw the Batik within an hour, how fast!

The process of painting

For them is easy, because they made the Batik so often. You see above, the colour is so nice and she can paint the colour like a normal drawing.

The pen with candle wax

We were given a chance to make a piece of Batik. We need to use pencil to draft it first.

Then I used the pen with candle wax and drew according to the line.

Why must use candle wax? It is because it will become an outskirt during painting process.

We started to paint the Batik, beside me is my friend, Jorine.

Haha, this is my painting! How terrible am I, who don't have the sense of artistic! I drew this on behalf of Leo Club function there.

This is what my friend drew, at least better than me! =p

We painted this without any draft, just simply mixed the colours together.

Thanks to Meng Zhen and Yap Jin who accompanied us to there.

Well, we managed to get our Batik back after the worker dried them up. Maybe I will give to the most loyal supporter for this blog, =p.

For tomorrow, I will post up the Thai Fair in Kelantan, stay tuned!

P/S: I will be busy during these few days until Friday, due to my assignments and coursework. So I might not visit to your blogs so often, sorry ya. But still I will post up every night. Wish me luck!
