Thank you so much for the positive input! I always appreciate hearing from viewers.

Thank you, Barbara! So glad you enjoyed the video.

So glad you enjoyed the video! Goats are definitely one of my favorite animal subjects.

@@magaliarosestudio5414Hello again ! Works of this type, are they framed under glass or is it possible without it?

@@atilorap Thank you for your interest. I treat my watercolor batik paintings in the same manner as a watercolor on paper. I mat them and frame under glass or acrylic. The surface when the painting is completed will still have a small wax content, so it is absolutely possible not to put it under glass. I have not yet experimented with the idea of mounting the completed painting in a gallery wrap style around canvas on a wooden frame. It would be very light and easy to hang.

Wonderful to hear from you, Linda! I really hope the watercolor batik 'bug' has bitten you as the process has given me so much. I began working with traditional watercolor materials and techniques and also enjoyed pours. About 7 years ago my sister sent me an article from an art magazine and a letter from a woman she worked with explaining the process. After experimenting and refining those methods to my own I now almost exclusively work with wax and watercolor. I am really trying to engage other artists to give it a try and thank you for letting me know that you are beginning your watercolor batik journey!

So wonderful to hear from you, Sondra! Sending you my best wishes, hope you are still creating artwork.

Thank you for taking the time to let me know my video was helpful to you, Claudia! I always enjoy hearing from viewers.

Excited that you are going to explore watercolor batik painting! If you ever have questions or comments that I can help you with you can contact me through my website magaliarose.com. Have fun!

@@magaliarosestudio5414 Thank you so much.

Thank you so very much, Isabel! Hope you keep watching.

Thank you, Jedn! I hope you are able to experiment with this technique.

Merci Dear Friend! Thank you for letting me know you are enjoying my videos! I hope you are continuing to paint!

Thank you for the kind words and taking the time to let me know you enjoyed the video!

Wow, Wayne! So glad to hear that the King of Yupo is out there and checking out my video! Best Wishes to you!!!

Thank you, Chris, for watching and for the kind words. I always enjoy hearing from viewers!

Glad you enjoyed the video, Linda! I use Dr. P.H.Martin Black Star India Ink. I usually use the matte, but the HiCarb is equally good though a bit shiny. The mineral paper is made by Yasutomo, and I usually buy it online (often Dick Blick) because I live in the post Camp Fire area of California, and we still don't have many art supply stores locally. I hope you let me see your work! You can always contact me through my website contact page at magaliarose.com.

Thank you COWGIRL JANE! I love hearing from viewers!

Thanks for the kind words and your question, Kelly. For my animal pieces I normally work with the rougher side of the ginwashi. It is my favorite side, but some of my portrait pieces are done on the smooth side which makes inking in details a little easier.

Great to hear from you, Rita! Glad the video has been such a help to you. I have been a watercolor teacher for many years, and it is very rewarding to hear I have been of help!

Excellent question, Cindy. A medium wash without the alcohol dries in a few minutes unlike watercolor paper...thicker applications of paint take longer. I usually don't use a hair dryer since it will usually just cause the paint to move about too much. The alcohol sprayed areas dry very quickly. If you give it a try I hope you let me know how it goes.

Wonderful, Jackie! Glad to know that the video helped...keep painting!

Thank you so much for the kind words! Art makes wonderful friends.

Hope you can share your own batik! I would love to see the work of others.

Thank you for the kind words, Kandice!

Thank you so much! I feel honored and hope you can share your work in the future.

Turned out the annoying, swinging camera was only during the asvert in the beginning.

I am so glad you enjoy my creations and thank you for sending such a kind message!

Thank you so much for the kind words, Marion! I always enjoy hearing from my viewers :-)

Thank you so much, Cheryl! I love hearing from viewers.

Thank you for taking the time to let me know you enjoyed the video! I plan to have more on the way soon.

This little video barely begins to cover the possibilities of using custom made stencils!

Thank you, Deb! I always appreciate hearing whether people enjoy seeing the process.

Thank you Christiane! I am so glad that you're going to try it again...Seriously, the key is to simply see shapes and not try to just outline an object. You have created so many lovely watercolor paintings, but I'm sure there might be one in the closet you can make into a Zen Pen, Mon Amie!

Thank you, Sondra! Entering the video tech world has definitely been interesting.

The surface of the batik mounting material should be smooth for proper adhesion. 140lb WC paper is too light, 300lb better, but only hot press. Cheaper to use mat board...even colors can work if you use the white back side. Paraffin wax does release toxins...I cut the negative odds by using a paraffin and bees wax batik wax and having a fan on low for ventilation. Removing the wax out of doors is a great option when possible.

Thanks, Maggie! I know how much you love mixing up pen & ink with watercolor and just knew you'd like this one!

Thank you, Maggie. Hope you enjoy our future videos!
