Market Day

An icy wind was blowing down from the mountains north of Hanoi so we sought refuge in Hoi An's Market hall to do some drawing today.

Food stalls were serving Cao Lao, Mi Quang and other delicious specialities. Tourists were quietly eating steaming bowls of heartwarming food andwe found some quiet corners to sit and sketch. I chose a set of standard Vietnamese scales which come in a single shade of 1950's greengrocer green and such an icon of Vietnam today.
