SUMMARY:Batik Silk Painting Workshop: Autumn Berries
DESCRIPTION:Course Overview\nIn this hands-on\, beginner-friendly class\, Lisa will guide you through the beautiful and organic process of batik\, a centuries-old technique that uses melted wax and vibrant inks on silk to create rich\, flowing designs.
