All I have!


Hours in the field and this is all I have. This is all I have! I toiled in the hot African sun, splinters, blisters and boils and this is all I got. My children need nourishment and this is all I can give, the earth won't give me one extra bean as the clouds did not provide one extra drop...we have to make do with what we have, this is it!

This piece was a pleasure to work on, I loved the grittiness and realness of it all. I breezed though it albeit found the beans a tad annoying but it was all in the name of love. The thought of a labourer's day's hard work and the measly produce can fit in his palm.
