Batik is a wax-resist dyeing technique practiced in parts of Bengal, Tamil Nadu, and Rajasthan. Hot wax is applied on fabric to block dye absorption. The crackle effect of dried wax is a signature of genuine batik.

The artist melts wax, applies it on fabric with a pen tool or brush in the desired pattern. Once the wax dries, the fabric is dipped in cold dye. The waxed areas resist color. Wax is then boiled off to reveal the design.
