The Artist’s Child’s Symbol of Creativity

The Barbados Lilies in our garden are in flower again and are the symbol of creativity for this blog.  They always bloom at the end of October with the spring renewal and represent the full force of the creative spirit.  These dramatic red flowers burst into life to signal the coming of summer, the time of abundance.

Like all living things, the lilies are fragile and need to be fed and nurtured to reach their full potential.  We can enjoy them for a short time before they disappear for another twelve months.  These beautiful flowers remind us that to be creative we must seize each moment and enjoy our time in the sun.
