What do you think of this so far? It's a work in progress:

I'm carrying on the usual Surrealist theme with my drawings; of course, it isn't supposed to look like the Seagull is actually wearing the helmet. They are two separate objects that have been merged together so it seems that at a glance, they are as one. The significance of this is that I wanted to create an illusion - will you take them as one or will you split them apart?
As for the significance of the bird and the helmet as individual objects... well, I like the viewer to try and figure out what my drawings symbolize. I don't really want to give too much away as I think art is highly personal. You may see things in this that I will never see, and vice versa.
Titles always come to me when the drawing is complete and when it becomes apparent what the drawing represents, but I always think it's fascinating to see pieces of art in-the-making... which is why I posted it here for others to look at if they're interested. :)
I'm not sure what else I'm going to do with it but I'm pleased with it so far! I'll make a new topic once I'm finished. *thumbs up*
