Pods of hope....

There are currently 12 'Pods' in this series of pen and ink drawings.
Conceptually they reference 'new growth, breaking free and developing'  in an illustrative biological, and
anatomical manner. The 'pod' shape started off as an 'egg' (birth) shape yet it was too 'nice', balanced, & even.
Often there are what I would call 'wonky' lines within the works, they are deliberate. To my mind, I don't want them perfect, life isn't perfect, the 'shaky' lines are part of the fragility of human nature.
