Live model drawing on the Moon Festival evening
COIVID-19 has changed many ways in our lives. I haven't seen my family for over two years, and I don't know when I will be able to get a visa and go back to my motherland for a visit. Especially on the Mid Autumn Moon Festival when all families should be together celebrating the annual harvest while enjoying watching the brightest full moon.
My husband is a Caucasian who understands Asian Culture better than most of Westerners. He got up earlier and baked a delicious dark chocolate cake for us, because we ate most of the mooncakes earlier. I was supposed to go Plein Air today. Might be my nostalgia, I didn't want to go out for an excuse of hot weather. Didn't feel productive, but I did go to the evening live model drawing drop-in class.
Wow, I wasn't the only one Chinese there! I guessed that drawing the live model helped us to forget homesickness. We even went out watching the full moon during the break. What a great way to celebrate our traditional Moon Festival!
