Amoral Tales

Short graphic stories based on ideas in Aesop's fables often keeping the animal heads but usually with nude figures suggesting alternative amoral versions of the moral tales.  A workshop of ideas to be brought together.  Let me know what you think about them and if you think I should neaten these drawings into a collection.
