Tea Country - Landscape Painting In Watercolour & Gouache

Back in 2011 I travelled alone to Sri Lanka during an early break from my 3 month trip in India which started in Chennai. I spent just over 3 weeks travelling around the country, and about half way through my trip, I visited Sri Lanka's hilly countryside called 'Tea country'.

Whenever I passed a small stall or shop on the side of a road, I was greeted with a smile, a quick wag of the head, and welcomed in for some 'chai', a small cup of (usually very sugary unless asked to have without) tea for the equivalent of about 10 pence. I had a great time there.

This is my watercolour & gouache painting based on a photo I took on location of a local woman collecting tea leaves which I painted for the Plein Airpril challenge, my day 4.
