Harmony of the fields

A farmer in a pale shirt and cloth headwrap guides a carabao through the muddy paddy, while white egrets perch along the water and on the animal’s back. Behind them, weathered thatched and tin-roofed houses sit among banana plants and coconut palms, painted in layered greens, violets and earthy browns. Loose, textured brushwork gives the field a soft, shimmering quality, and the mood is calm and unhurried, the timid yet serene village. A natural fit for collectors of Philippine art, Filipino landscape painting and rural genre scenes, it suits a living room, dining area or study, and pairs well with other works on farm life, heritage and the Philippine countryside. This original oil on canvas painting measures 25 inches by 19 inches and was completed in 2026. It is signed by the artist and comes with a certificate of authenticity. The piece is framed and ready to hang.
