PAINTING JOURNEY CAMBODIA
/ 18.10. - 5.12. 2022
I walked places and did Plein-air paintings with inks and aquarelle on paper. I bought a handy backpack with a chair, which is a great tool for working outside.
I painted structures of moss and spills on the Angkor Wat temple walls, a Girl with a Fendi hat cutting Dragon fruits in Tuk Tuk, a man who fell on a motorbike and his wife washing his body at a meat selling stand, a grandma barbecuing meat on banana leaves on the street, argument with police, floating villages where is everything on the river - shop, church, restaurant… I painted bananas, mangoes, melons, and prayers to Buddha.
