I love painting cherries for some reason and decided to look online to see what they symbolize in different cultures. Apparently, depending on the culture (primarily either Japanese or Chinese culture), they are associated with beauty, fertility, festivities, rebirth, immortality, and have been used as symbols of friendship. So beauty, food, partying with friends….what’s not to like?
Happy Weekend!
