The title of the painting derives from an Afrikaans folksong in the "FAK". The work has also been influenced by advertisements from the Victorian era. I did some research on Victorian floral painting with the focus on roses. Different varieties were usually combined in one composition. The layout and lettering of the painting are also based on advertisements from the Victorian period.

I always introduce some element of bygone days into my work. As children, we would buy pink coloured sweets with words of love on them at the corner café in Merweville. These too are a source of inspiration for some of my artworks.
