Abstract: A method for Batik art involves the use of pressure through a stylus to transfer wax from a transfer sheet onto a receiving base or substrate. Following transfer to the substrate or base, the areas between the wax may be painted such as with water colors, after which the transferred wax may be removed if desired.

Abstract: A educational and play kit allows the user to place panel strips in staggered array so that different pictures are seen from different angles. The panels are attached in a sheet and can be colored or drawn on; then they are separated; then they are mounted in sequential order (1A, 2A, . . . ; 2A, 2B . . . ) in slots (125) in side (120) of a box frame (100). There are two panel sets (B and C), so when viewed at an angle from the left or right different pictures are seen. In addition, the base (110) of the box frame can have its own picture drawn or mounted under the panels. Assembly markings may be placed on the panels and sides to aid children in placing the panels in order, and the markings may be color-coded for the two panel sets.

Abstract: A method, workpiece and the product thereof for making simulated stained glass works of art includes a transparent substrate covered on one side by an opaque scratch-removable coating and on the other side by transparent-ink patterns or solid colors. Portions of the opaque coating are removed to reveal through the transparent substrate, underlying transparent-ink patterns. The partially scratched product "drawing" produces an excellent visual appearance simulative of stained glass when held up to light. The finished product can be affixed to a window for continued enjoyment.
