REFLECTIONS IN BATIK : ROSI ROBINSON

Rosi Robinson has devoted a career spanning more than 30 years as an art director, instructor, author and artist in traditional and non-traditional methods of batik. She is the author of a leading-selling batik book from SEARCH PRESS, "Creative Batik". Here Rosi discusses her work as a painterly artist -- an expression which describes using traditional implements such as kitzkahs, tjantings, dye, wax, and indonesian cotton to achieve portraits that rival water colors, oils and pastels for their depth, warmth, beauty, and detail. "...My travels and many interests are my inspiration. My work ranges from realistic land and seascapes, sporting scenes (especially rugby and cricket), animals, birds, horses, flowers to abstract images, eg reflections, which I create with the wax and dyes on fabric and paper. I try to capture movement, colour and luminosity in my work, as well as contrasting light and shadow." Produced by Studio Galli Productions - Edited with original piano music by Andrew Galli.
