My BlackBird series is about empathy, the rawest most vulnerable places within us and how easily they can be harmed.
The items are symbols of love (locket), spirituality(rosary), commitment (wedding band), and hope (key).
The blackbird symbolises a lack of empathy, the raven doesn`t care about or even know the harm he may have caused by his theft.
He merely sought to satisfy his own desire for the shiny thing, a thing that really means nothing to him but perhaps everything to the one who has lost it.
We all hang by a thread and our souls, for want of a better word, are most often damaged by those who never really give us a second thought.....or do they?
Daily 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.
To help support the Literature community we hold regular contests. It is an opportunity for you to get involved and gain some exposure. Contest winners will be featured in a news article and a journal entry--as well as other fabulous prizes. Please read this article for more information on how you can participate!

See me around, babe!
