I am sure many foreigners are not fond of batik and the tradition. What is batik?
Actually, batik is a method of painting on cloth where it's practiced all over Asia. It's also one of the highly respected art forms.
Batik in Malaysia, the idea of batik painting was first pioneered in 1950s by a Penang local, Chinese, his name Chuah hean Teng. After that only it has continued to be practiced here.
Normally in Malaysian batik art they use a wax-resist painting technique besides the dip-dyeing to render patterns on cloth.
Most of the Malaysian batik paintings always revolve around floral patterns where human or animal painting is less common.
If you want to experience painting your own batik design then you can visit the natural batik House at Pahang. They can let your inner creativity fly, as you can create batik painting as your own. They also teach you how to blend basic color to turn into elegant designs.
