I made a small sketch of the flowers for my own memories
Diwali was not just about noise and fireworks, it was a very personal celebration for the family we were staying with. They spent the day collecting beautiful flowers and arranging them in big copper bowls with floating candles. Such a peaceful, joyous occupation. The women prepared special food for the evening and we were invited to share a celebratory glass of rum. I made a small sketch of the flowers for my own memories But my sketch does not reflect the artistic beauty of the bowls of flowers arranged by the women of the house.
