Relationship Triptych

This first set of in progress 3 pieces is about the cyclic nature of sexual/ intimate relationships with a longstanding partner (such as in a marriage). The first images are of the thumbnails, sketches, & mock-ups that I did for the pieces. The last 3 images are the images as they are in their current states. When I was constructing the images I thought of them as going in no particular order... they are the highs & lows of intimacy & feelings of connectedness to a partner which is in my mind fluctuating & cyclic. I am displaying them here in the order that they were created... Intensity being first, Disconnect second, and Contentment third.
