I was told once that the lack of gender identifying traits on the "witch" made this drawing very appealing (the person who said this is almost as random as I am *glee*).

Originally, I had a long story-like dialogue for this drawing, but I've forgotten it over the months.  To the point, this image is supposed to represent prejudice  in most all it's forms, and how easy it is to overcome them.  Good (the Angel) and Evil (the Witch)... Good feeling the pain of what is right, and Evil consoling/comforting his/her enemy.  A moment of compassion where titles mean nothing.  Proof that above all else, love is the mightiest of all things.

Yeah... doesn't make any sense, does it?  I liked the idea, so nya.  Plus, there's just something appealing about all those old sculptures of Angels that you find in really old cemetaries and Cathedrals.

It’s a great picture. I don’t see the prejudice part. My original thought is that it would was to be connected to your other (reya?) picture.

:-) Jennifer L Jones replies: "Heh, yeah, I have a bad habit of not making much sense when I talk. Bi product of inherent randomness, I think.

The best way I can explain it is that every group in all the word hold certain misconceptions about other groups. (in this case, Good and Evil, God and Satan, etc) Group A, for one reason or another thinks that Group B is... I dunno, stupid, because their ancestors/parents/friends say it is so. They never take the time to learn differently.

That’s what this picture represents. The overcoming of preconceived notions, of prejudice, and seeing the truth in things - that we all posses a feeling and heart and love and are therefor equal."
