Hi, call me Arie. I am from Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Currently, I live in Brisbane. Back in my hometown, I open a batik workshop named Lukman Batik Workshop.
The workshop in Yogyakarta is still running while I am away since I have a team backing me up there.
Now, while I am in Brisbane, I also want to share my knowledge about making batik with the traditional Javanese wax method.
