Cliffhanger 2003		The dried out Hato plains needs a drink. And if the water doesn't come to it, it comes to the water. Organic life holds on to the clouds, squeezes it to get a drink.
Low tide 2003		A seedpod of the rubbervine found near the Hato plains, resembled a ship to me. A ship in the desert with no water to sail upon.
Memories of the future I 2003		All sorts of driftwood make the outline of the brain. The cloud represents the spirit that remembers things to come; the bent earth and the driftwood are one.
Turning point 2003		A spiraling cloud above the Hato plains. Two stylized Dividivi trees squeeze the cloud to drink from her moisture.
Let it go 2003		Me and my girlfriend and the love of my life that grows between us.
You've got balls 2003		Inspired by the refinery on Curaçao. The toxic smoke this refinery puts out over the people that live downwind of it, is criminal. In this drawing nature grew over The Isla.
Beauty of the beast 2003		Although the refinery puts out more than the legal amount of toxic smoke, when the light is right, it is a pretty sight.
Mind over matter 2003		The flesh is weak, but the mind is strong
