Tiny purple flowers

These are actually tiny little things growing on top of a garden wall. They're not moss, just tiny little plants. I'm quite happy with how the flowers turned out. I even made the top one into a jigsaw puzzle :D 

First batik handiwork

Since I am now camera-less, will have to make do with uploading other artwork, it seems. I still have photos from the UK trip, but have been too busy with work these past weeks. 

This is a batik made in Sg Sireh Homestay, Tanjung Karang, Selangor. It's one of the activities we offered to a group of media reps we had visiting recently and since we already paid for the package, I gave it a go. I have never been very arty, but I have been playing with colours the past few years. Colouring is the IN thing to do these days, you know :) I'll upload snaps of those separately. 

One thing I noticed, it was quite easy to stay within the lines because of the wax outlines. So you just need to worry about getting the right hue for the dyes. And I learnt that the colours fade as it dries, so we need to make the colours darker than you want the end product to be.
