[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a photograph of a watercolor painting I recently finished. My subject here are the squatter houses of the poor people in Manila who gather "found materials" from the dump yard, patch it up together to build their illegal dwellings in vacant lots or over wide sidewalks. This painting was based on a photograph I took when I was in the Manila last February 2009.

The medium is watercolor, over 140 lb. watercolor paper. The size is 12" x 12".

The original photograph where I based my painting is in the WORKSHOP.
