Rita Wickramasinghe, an award-winning batik artist, has been creating Batik Wall Art for over 35 years. Currently residing in Florida, she brought this ancient art form to the United States from her home country of Sri Lanka several years ago.

Rita has received numerous top honors, and her art has been featured in various magazines and newspapers. Art enthusiasts appreciate her diverse styles, which include wildlife, marine life, abstract designs, and floral motifs. She often incorporates social and spiritual themes into her work.

While many artists have adopted technology to streamline their processes, Rita has remained dedicated to preserving traditional batik methods. Authentic batik art features a two-sided mirror image, and the meticulous application and removal of wax are essential to this craft.

Constantly seeking innovation, Rita has expanded her creations to include fashion designs such as beach wraps and other batik clothing. She emphasizes color selection and varies her techniques to keep her work fresh.

Many of Rita's pieces feature her signature "paraffin cracking" technique, which adds crisscrossing lines to her art. This effect occurs when dye seeps into the grooves of the cracked wax, resulting in distinctive patterns.

I will soon upload my artwork, including wearable art like beach wraps. Additionally, I enjoy making jewelry and herbal items so that I will be adding all my products here as well. In the meantime, feel free to visit my website at www.splashbug.com.
