I just finished this painting yesterday and today gave it the name Prosperity! I came up with the name after being told earlier that Peony meant Peace in Chinese. When I got home I went to the computer and searched Peony flower symbolism and this is what I found... "Peony symbolizes bashfulness and compassion. It symbolizes a happy life, happy marriage, good health and prosperity."
Did you know? The Chinese call Peonies the King of Flowers or the Flower Fairy.
The painting is 24"x24", acrylic on canvas. ~ Sharka
