Presentation and artist demonstration of international visiting artists in Oaxaca City, Mexico. I was able to present my art practice of ink extraction with Oaxaquenos dye ingredients of cochineal, pericón, marush, and anil (indigo). I explained my method of ink thickening for silkscreen printmaking on paper.

I hand made the paper with abaca (a type of banana palm) and hemp pulp.
