“Mother and Child” Hand-Drawn Batik Textile Art

The Bond of Nature: “Mother and Child” 2019

Celebrate the instinctive beauty of protection and love with this Original “Mother and Child” Batik Painting. Created in 2019, this piece uses a sophisticated study of animal forms to represent the timeless connection between a mother and her offspring.

The artwork is masterfully executed on cotton fibre using the wax-resist batik method. The natural “crackle” effect characteristic of this medium creates a complex, marbled background that gives the piece an organic, ancient feel. Its long, vertical 8″ x 24″ format makes it a distinctive statement piece that brings warmth and narrative to any space.

Artisanal Highlights:

• 2019 Archival Piece: A beautiful example of the studio’s early work focusing on emotive animal silhouettes.

• Hand-Drawn Precision: Not a digital print—each line was hand-applied with wax, ensuring that every textural detail is unique.

• Textured Cotton Fibre: The canvas provides a high-quality, matte finish that highlights the depth of the earthy dyes.

• Universal Symbolism: A perfect piece for those who appreciate the themes of family, nurture, and the natural world.
