Artist's Comments
Inspired by Oscar Wild's "Nightingale and the Rose". You can read the full story here - [link]
So the Nightingale pressed closer against the thorn, and the thorn touched her heart, and a fierce pang of pain shot through her. Bitter, bitter was the pain, and wilder and wilder grew her song, for she sang of the Love that is perfected by Death, of the Love that dies not in the tomb. One of my favorite fables, it tells the story of a nightingale that gives his own life to create a red rose in a beautiful and yet tragic way... ALways wanted to do something inspired by it. Thank you to everyone who helped me with this work, I appreciate all the comments and votes on flickr too :] Oh and I hope the rose isn't too big..

 reports, 1d 20h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
