This painting shows a pregnant young lady with a single daisy flower in her hand.

As human we’re all pregnant regardless of our gender,we are pregnant with ideas,dreams and aspirations,and as expected we all believe that a day of bringing forth will come.
Just as every pregnant women go through three stages of pregnancy with each morning sicknesses differing from other,so also is our life journey. Some people find life sooo easy and some have to go through series of hard work/struggles,but the thought of bringing forth will always propel us to keep pushing on.

The daisy represents purity, innocence,new beginnings,the birth of dreams and ideas always bring about newness to an individual.

Regardless Let’s keep up the good spirit and one day our dreams will come through.
