More from Myanmar: Towel Seller

You get the picture. My painting ages the young girl. The assignment was to work on a large canvas. The size is 18" x 24". When it dries, I plan to varnish it to brighten the colors.

Burmese Man

I love to try and capture people in photos and then make them into art, in this  case oil paint. This man was standing on a beach of the Irrawaddy River in Myanmar at sunset. And yes he has on a t-shirt that says NASA. The likeness is not quite there, but he does not look like he is from outer space either. That t-shirt definitely traveled!

Avocado Seller from Myanmar

This is an oil from a photo I took in Myanmar of a local woman selling avocados.  Note that the light yellow line on the nose and right side of the face is not a highlight, but thanaka cream that is used for sun protection and as make-up.

Locals rub the bark of a tree on round stones and add water to make this paste for use by men, women and children.
