Creative Kickstart

A Step By Step Guide to Batik Painting

This is an extract from our Studio Weekly from 7th March 2025.

Every other week, Creative Kickstart brings you a new creative challenge—designed to help you embrace imperfection, fill your sketchbooks, and find your own style. From quick drawing prompts to collage, textiles, and hands-on projects, these exercises are all about experimenting without pressure. 

The goal? To carve out a little time, experiment without pressure, and maybe even surprise yourself with what you enjoy. So, why not give it a go?

This week we have a longer creative activity if you’d like to learn something new! This step-by-step picture guide will take you through the process of making your own batik painting.
