John and his mother are painting in the country in the summer. His mother has always been a painter and still is, at 90. When John and his sisters were children, she would take them out painting in the country and this was a rare re-occurrence since John's pre-teens, 20 years earlier. The film's background is also the painters' subject - a farmer's brown field being ploughed by a red & white tractor, a grey barn, green trees and a blue sky with billowing white clouds. It ends with a peek at John's finished painting, another rare occurrence. A single-shot film, taken at 3 seconds per frame, over one hour.
