IF-Intention


"What's your Intention?"..."The Power of Intention"..."The road to hell is paved with good intentions"..."Intention is the force of the will projected".  All these thoughts implanted from the outside about intention swim above and below the surface of the my mind leading me to believe that intention is a starting place on the road forward: Intention sets direction, but the force of will or the "correct" intention is needed for hope of the intention becoming actuality.  Or maybe intention is both starting place and a map that is formed as one moves through life.  Whatever the case without intention one's life becomes a boat drifting and subject to all the intentions of persons, places, nature that surrounds.

Very cool, loose style. So many interesting characters and details to find. It's funny how "intention" is just one those things that you have but don't usually think about much (unless it's the word for IF)!

The varied storytelling from person to person is what keeps me glued. I like your mix of line and form on all, as well as the attention to detail on the costuming.
very cool.


I'm left wondering why the lady in red shoes is a-nibbling on the big guy's arm....
