Description:
Lazim Ismail (born in 1963) is a renowed BATIK artist with more than 30 years experience. He is known for his unique style of 'painting-cracking', a tedious technique using at least 9 layers of colours, which has won him numerous local awards. Over the years, he has held many solo batik exhibitions in Malaysia, Brunei and New Zealand. Currently, he conducts batik painting workshops at the National Craft Complex, Kuala Lumpur, where he also manages a shop selling his own paintings. Lazim is also the 2005 National Champion in Batik Hibiscus Competition.
