Takegawara Onsen (竹瓦温泉) is a traditional public hotspring house in Oita: the area is famous as a hotspring town.
In front of this building, I started to make an oil painting.
Painting on the spot is always so stimulating and embarrasing that I couldn't make a painting as I usually do in the room.
But the experience like this would help me not to worry about how other people think of me or what they do.
After finishing painting, a family visiting there took a photo with the painting as if it was also the specialty.
