This image kind of developed from an element of a commission I completed a couple months ago (will post it another time). I thought it was the most interesting part of it and wanted to explore it a bit more. At the same time, I have a vivid image of a child's skull with all its milk teeth present from an exhibition at the Academy of Sciences some years ago; this nicely magnified my existing discomfort with and fear of dental procedures (I have one upcoming), and this is what has come out.
Sweet dreams!
