Muralist Pausing Under Shed During Iloilo Rain

Wet pavement reflects the warm glow of firelight as a muralist pauses beneath a riverside shed in Iloilo. Rain streaks the air, catching the orange illumination against the grey wet season sky. The artist stands still, head tilted upward, examining the structure while paint cans and brushes rest on the slick ground nearby. Wooden beams of the shed frame the view, leading toward the water's edge where droplets ripple. Shadows stretch long across the wet concrete, and the humid air rests on the visible texture of the wet brickwork. one drop of water slides down the edge of a paint bucket.
