I realized I never made a genuine effort to make an artwork that portrayed Filipino culture. Sari-sari stores are like mini kiosks of assorted goods ranging from shampoo in sachets to bags of chips. You can count them endlessly driving along any street.

P.S. I have washed clothes by hand- and I do it sometimes just for fun.

This is really cool! So do you live in the Philippines? My boyrfriends from there and I'm thinking of moving there in a few years - if I have the money. He keeps telling me all these stories of how and where they lived and it sounds amazing.

I know this has been updated, but I never did comment on it or even see it the first time you posted it so here ya go!

Oh my goodness, excellent and beautifully done! I love the whole picture, and so many things about it. I could say the obvious like how beautiful the front-woman's face was drawn, how perfect the colour palette is or how flawless the foreground and background come together -- but I'll also mention perhaps the lesser obvious..like how I adore the details on every single tile you painted, the details of the buildings subdued in the background (more specifically the rusted roof, omg

) and how you definitely did not fail to show reflectiveness in your colour choices (such as the main girls left [our right] arm or the bucket in the background!)
