Thai Temple Art Replica Sweethearts Painting, "Whisper of Love II"

A young swain whispers slyly to his lady friend, who listens with a look of polite skepticism. A replica of a famous painting at the Wat Phumin temple, its theme is timeless. The modestly dressed woman with earrings and the man with his tattoos could pass for a contemporary couple. Pathawee skillfully recreates the ancient scene, using the same pose and colors as the original temple art.
