The mature leaf on top
The immature leaf under mature one
Once many immature leaves are gathered they are softened in a pot of hot water and then a mallet is used to clean any impurities
Then by using there hands and lips they stretch the material to thin as paper workable "ink"...they can add color or leave natural
as you can see it becomes transparent....
Then the end result is used on crafts...which mimics paint...absolutely amazing......and time consuming.
