Another swan picture! I know but I really love this guy. Look how he showed off for me. What other male has done that for me lately! This is a Batik. Painted on rice paper and wax. It is a long process and you really do not know if it is working out like you planned until the very end when you iron the wax off. But it is great fun when it does. I love all the texture, you just can not get that any other way. He also got a second place ribbon in the Middletown Art Show !!!!! Watercolor Batik on Rice Paper
