Pewie Pui V3/4

Did this print in memory of my eldest sister. This was from a memory of a tree that stood outside my grand uncles house “ sapu mudh”. I have witnessed true love between my sister and husband when they would sit under this tree countless time. Each year when I’d see these pewie bloom around may-march. It reminds me of the LOVE it was privilege to witness between the couples.
