Artwork Description:
This is me, Rikki Power! I was born in 1967 and raised outside of Ipoh, Malaysia (near Kuala Lumpur). Where I lived with my many brothers and sisters and extended family.
I have lived on Tioman Island, Malaysia for the past 12 years.
I first started doing Batik as a factory hand (my job was painting Malaysian Custom/Culture designs in bulk onto batik for the overseas and local markets)on the main land. I soon found myself interested and intrigued by the art of Batik and wanting to explore more and create a different style to suit all tastes. I have been successful with my Batik studio on Tioman Island for the past 12 years, teaching numerous people the skilled craft of my ancient culture. I have travelled extensively overseas having exhibitions in some of the countries I have visited.
I look forward to meeting everyone and anyone from everywhere one day. if you can not make in to my paradise maybe I will see you one day in your land. Orders over the net are possible. I accept all currencies, including VISA. Take care of yourselves and each other and thank you very much for visiting my web page.
