In the Bai communities of Dali, southwest China, folk painting vividly transforms everyday life into stories. Artists grind local soil into natural pigments and paint what they know best — mountains and markets, rituals and seasons, and the warmth of village life. Rooted in tradition yet full of imagination, each piece is a window into the Bai people's world, where the ordinary becomes beautifully alive.
