I had been in the fields of pingba for a whole afternoon, head pounding. The entire morning was spent looking and driving, seeking the right place to stop and paint. We found a beautiful place, and after a meager lunch, set up to paint under an overcast sky. I cant find the photo of that day’s painting, unfortunately…sooner or later.

The sun continued that day, and burnt me pretty well. I finished the painting 2 hours later, by which time i had already gathered quite an assorted crowd of folks. The kids here were coming out of class and walking the long road home for dinner. After about 15 autographs, we packed up and were escorted to our car.
