Sneak Peak of a series of 12

This will be a 12 piece series, having to do with life and death.  While modern culture teaches us to be afraid of death and the afterlife, animals live and die innocent to this.  Humans bury and cremate their loved ones, but wild animals die in nature, letting the elements take over.  I am fascinated by the beautiful forms and contortions their bodies take on, whether it be because of natural causes or man-made.  Much of their body positioning reminds me of the way a ballerina moves.
