This drawing is about coverings, guise, superficiality, veneer and misrepresentation.  Ha ha, just kidding! It's just some visual ramblings with bird motifs popping up again and a deformed sheep!

This drawing addresses issues of indecisiveness, internal contradiction and persuasive factors.  A scatteredness (also overflow) of being is felt through the interaction between and incongruity of "shadowy shapes" and circumscribing lines.

This drawing explores perceptions of self as well as attraction/repulsion, desire/fear, and self worth/self deprecation.  There is only one character in this composition but multiple elements of personality are present.

This drawing is about control/lack of control, responsibility/barriers to fulfilling responsibilities, power structures and maternal instinct and obligations.  The title can be interpreted as either a failure to disarm (as in a volatile situation) or a failure so egregious that it is incapacitating.
