I had a brainstorm that I wanted to do a batik portrait. Great idea that was lost in the execution. I saw it going downhill but kept going thinking, "Who knows. It might come out OK." I was mistaken yet again. For the process pledge: I used a pattern on freezer paper. As I did a section, I waxed (soy) the section last painted. Very complicated. I think I would have better results if I used the freezer paper as a stencil. Think I'll call it good and work on something else.
YUCK!

Disregard. This is a test comment to see if my settings are correct.
