The most highly respected artist in the village of Meno and one of his wives prepare painting surfaces from the bases of sago-palm leaf-stems and prime them with clay slip. Then the painter gets his paints ready, uses water to make a preliminary sketch and finally begins to apply the paints (white, red, yellow).
