One purpose for going to Shenzhen was to visit Dafen, the artists' village on the outskirts of the city, where there are six hundred odd studios producing originals and copies. It was a wet day with a typhoon blowing through a neighbouring province. We commissioned a copy of a popular painting for a very reasonable fee, but politely asked them not to copy the signature.
