Original artwork description:

This mixed-media Acrylic and Ink painting was created predominantly “en plein air” in the very special and beautiful county of Yilan in the east of Taiwan. It was painted concurrently with the other Ricefield piece during a recent family trip. I would get up around 6 each morning to paint this beautiful view for a few hours before the daytime heat got too hot to paint outside. I love the ricefields and buildings in this area as they are very unique and it is so relaxing to see the greens and yellows swaying in the quiet wind. Over the course of a week this piece was built up slowly and I finished it at my studio in Taipei City upon returning home. As usual painting outside is never dull and always offers an array of changing challenges. When these pieces were started the morning light was very hazy and I couldn't make out the distant details, but as the week progressed and a nearby typhoon sucked away the clouds a huge mountain range was unveiled in background! I didn't add it into my pictures as I wanted to focus on other elements and details of the view, but I have taken some photos of the view with mountains for future reference. One new detail that appeared in the middle of the week that I added into the picture was the two farmers who were watering the fields and gave me the title for the piece.
