Dragon Fly

Nest

Cicada

Bird Bones (finished)

I do need to explain this, i don't really understand the subconscious formalities of it, but its saying that birds should not be caged and made to sing for our pleasure, its selfish, imagine if it were the other way around? I have birds, caged yes, but the inside bird only sleeps in his cage and is free to roam and fly...that's right, unclipped, around the house all day. As it should be. :)

Extremely productive day.

I played my uke in the sunshine (btw i'm writing an album)

I played Corspe' Bride piano pieces on piano

I ate vine leaves

I painted...Duh!

October Inks

Skeleton Bird (not finished) - I'm thinking of putting a note in a speach bubble coming from the cage, and outlining the skeleton.

Morals

I think this one deserves an explanation:

The bird represents evil, it is a demon casting evil smoke on her that the world puts forth on us, choking us. It is the evil she is capable of.

The girl represents impressionability of human nature.

The balloon innocence/childhood/naivety/hope.

She is relatively evil but not fully letting go of hope of being better and showings traces of the good left in her (the shoe lace, an extension of her, a tiny tangent is still wanting to. But of-course, evil is very easy to succumb to. )

I can apply this to myself; a year ago i was FAR FAR FAR more naive and sheltered then i am now...i wish i could take it all back...but i can't (maybe not all). I should have done what the monkeys did and covered my eyes, ears and mouth!
