Product Description

This Batik was hand drawn and signed by Mr. Kiwanuka. He is fast gaining recognition as the premier Batik artist in Kenya! Batiks are produced in Kenya by brushing hot liquid wax onto a piece of cotton cloth in the desired pattern. The canvas is then dipped into a dye which adheres to all of the areas that are not covered by the wax. The wax is then removed and reapplied repeated for each color used. This is a tedious time consuming endeavor that yields exceptional art. Animals, village scenes, landscapes, seascapes and abstracts compose much of the subject matter. The colors are natural and brilliant! Cheetahs inhabit most of Africa and are held in awe for their amazing speed. The cheetah has the fastest land speed of any living animal reaching speeds between 70 and 75 mph and has the ability to accelerate from 0 to over 62 mph in three seconds! These two are taking a break! This batik is heavy weight and in excellent condition for framing. It is also perfectly fine to hang as is.
