Description:
It is a hot day. Thai farmers plant rice in the paddy since early morning. Artist Tan Waphet paints the rural scene with oil on canvas. "I grew up in a rural village surrounded by rice paddy where most of the people including my parents grow rice. Though being a rice farmer is very hard work and does not bring much income, we are all happy doing it. Rice planting has been part of my world since my youngest days and it is in my blood. I don't think I can live without it," says Tan.
