Description
This portrait paintings have a background story, when I and my husband traveled to Bali in 2007. We walked about at Onion Farm near Volcano area. These 3 cute children suddenly appeared and followed us, and they asking for money. I asked them why they need money, and they answered it was for school. And we gave them some quarter dollar, actually they didn't understand how much the value, because Indonesia use rupiah not dollar. But they feel happy, after got the money they run to their parent which were working at onion filed not far from where we stood ( to show what they got). Their parent gave a wave and smile to us. And the children came again and still followed us where we walked. Then my husband took picture of them. And here it is the Onion Farm children who gave lots of sweet memories.
