Description
This digital painting (created using ArtRage 2 and GimpShop) depicts an innocent little "love triangle".
The quote displayed within the cartoon panel is from the great Russian writer Fyodor Dostoyevsky (1821-1881):
''It won't be the love of beauty that saves the world,
but the beauty of love.''
Dostoyevsky responded to new modern trends in philosophy that attacked the roots of our society, our love and our morality. His novels were very human and moving, and he wrote one of the first "detective" stories in literary history with his work "Crime and Punishment", which is one of my favorites.
This cartoon borrows a character ("Nelly") from the work of fellow Deviant John Su, who is one of my favorite DeviantARTists here on DeviantART. The crouching figure of Nelly was taken from the loading sequence of his Flash animation "Shoo Fly" ( [link] ), but not directly ... especially since I don't have a Flash editor. Using ArtRage 2, Nelly was re-drawn and colored. Nelly is used with John's permission.
