The beautiful Batik painting of Lord Shiva, the King of Dancers, is given a nice and detail treatment in the traditional Batik style. Nataraja's dance activates dormant vital energy (kundalini shakti) and it becomes an act of creation. It reflects the cosmic motion of life. The lower right hand is in the abhaya mudra position, bestowing peace and protection. The second left hand points downward to the uplifted left foot, signifying release. The right foot, planted on the prostrate body of Apasmara Purusha, the demon of forgetfulness, symbolizes human ignorance of our divine nature. A ring of flames and light arises from and surrounds the dancer, representing the purifying power of the dance. Nataraja's face, meanwhile, remains calm, quietly witnessing the tremendous display of his own energy with just the hint of a smile.
The beautiful painting in light blue shows the Lord with full of life and enthusiasm. 
The method of waxing and dewaxing gives rise to a special effect to the painting.
