Order Completion

Water colour on paper
9.5" x 14"
Every day after completing the house hold duties early in the morning The Lady sits just outside her modest home in Pune and gets on with it. First she has to cut out small, flat strips out of the bamboo. Then she starts weaving it carefully and beautifully to make various articles. Its wonderful to see the way her fingers move. Many times we are not able to notice the joints. Its amazing.
Small and sharp wood filings sting in the hands causing pain and irritation. I asked them how they remove it, got a reply with a needle......
