The inspiration for this piece came from a song written about the tulip flowers:

"Blooming and withering tulips, happy tulips,

Flowers bring joy, hope, happiness … "

The painting combines the musical notes with the flower vase, and a candle, whose flame was on and then off. The message of the work is that life is a circle of blooming, withering and re-blooming – When something ends,  something new begins
