VietNamNet Bridge – Oil paintings and sketches of the Central Highlands city of Da Lat by Mexican artist Daniel Rueffert will go on display during the annual flower festival that runs from today, Dec 30, to next Tuesday.

Rueffert, 64, visited Da Lat XQ Hand-embroidery Company in June to learn "embroidery painting."

After returning to his homeland, he came back to Da Lat earlier this month to work. Pictures on display at the exhibition at XQ Embroidered Paintings Showroom depict local women, images of the Langbiang Highlands, flower markets and Da Lat City itself.
