This is my lastest masterpiece... born of feelings of emptiness and inadequacy... been unemployed for 4 months now and its a battle finding my confidence again. went for an interview and it bombed. eye's being the windows to ur soul... the woman in the pic has none, no pupil. and she's naked and vulnerable...
terrified!
This is something i drew after a very terrifying experience, where i was stranded in a really dodgy suburb, notorious for hi-jackings, gangs, murder, rape and all things bad. I didnt know how to tell anyone how to find me, i didnt even know wot road i was on and at the same time didnt want to endanger anyone dear to me.

the journey
This is one of my Favourite drawings. Basically : day or night on the road or journey of your life, even when the path has its obsticles you need to keep it together or rather protect yourself from pain. There's a broken heart in the centre, leaking but it's chained and the key is broken in the lock. The blood drips onto the broken road that carries on with no end. Day and night are on either side of the road.
trapped vs protected
This is the 1st of my 'feeling' drawings. There's a baby in the cage, while the bird flies free with a woman looking on. I'm not too sure why I drew the dead rose but it leaves a negative vibe. The baby being protected by the cage probably relates to my own innocence being lost as a child. The rose probably symbolizes the end or death of my childhood... I dont know.
