Description of the painting

The inspiration to paint this flower came to me in the week of Pentecost. There are many symbols depicting the Holy Ghost. The Strelitzia flower has this symbolism. For my parents this flower holds memories to their time on the Canary Islands where this flower blooms abundantly. Can you see the tongues of fire, that are mentioned in Acts 2, in it’s shape too?
