A common treat among village folks in the southeast region of Asia, this acrylic depicts an old man preparing his own special mixture of Betel leaves. Often served with ground Areca nut and lime, the creator brings out even the most minute elements to show the level of detail the old man goes into to create the perfect concoction that he will go on to enjoy perhaps for the rest of the day. Picture yourself in the midst of this rural setting while you watch the old man careful blend the handpicked ingredients he has procured as though he is passing down this traditional recipe to you.
