Jo Whiteland
Batik
Jo discovered her passion for batik whilst working with artists in Kota Baharu on the east coast of Malaysia. She has developed her own style, repeating motifs to give the works life, depth and a sense of movement; taking her inspiration from the natural world. She works on white cotton fabric using traditional wax pens, wax and dyes building up layers to give depth and colour. Jo lives in Bristol and has exhibited widely in the West Country and is a member of the Batik Guild.
