Artist's Comments

So here is what sprung from the card that I did months before this was conceived. I actually did two versions of this print. I did the multi-color one first in water soluble ink and then what was left of the linoleum when I was done I printed with oil based ink. I water colored that version but it did not turn out as well as I wanted it to and it sadly turned out to be the only art I did all Summer. At any rate, this print has some very common Mexican themes and symbols: strong faith, a sombrero, a paliacate. But it also has the Coca-Cola which is the most recognizable trademark in the entire world. Again showing the effect that the United States and globalization has on our neighbor to the south. It's a bit busier in the background than I would have liked but oh well. I probably will not do a multi-color print that big again. Many water soluble inks.
