Pumpkin and Squash Batik


 

It's fun to unwind with a little ink, watercolor, hot wax and pumpkins!  I start by sketching my composition with India ink.  Next, I add watercolor, layering until the hot wax is applied.  Several layers later, crinkling, more watercolor and ironing between paper, the image is revealed.  Only then do I find out what has emerged with the process. I love the serendipity of it all!  Painting number 4692 in 4692 days.
