Beth and Jonathan Evans, internationally known batik artists, discuss their craft and recently published book, "A Book of Batik," at this virtual event on Zoom.
This event will take place on Zoom. Registration required.
About the Book (from the publisher):
"A Book of Batik" is an art book, generously illustrated with a rich diversity of samples of Beth and Jonathan Evans work - dating back, in Jonathan’s case, to Ibiza in the early 1970s - that also functions as a dual autobiography. Both are well-traveled and cultured people and fine writers, and Jonathan in particular is a gifted weaver of tales. His section of the book includes a lovely, serendipitous account of “How I Met and Joined Forces with Beth” as well as “Making Lemonade Out of Lemons: Or, How I built a batik factory in my garden and a killer virus saved our bacon in a pandemic”. (It all started when a friend asked Jonathan to batik images of the Covid-19 virus on a scarf)." - Ethan Casey, Publisher, Blue Ear Books
