Names of Influential works

1

Untitled #90, 1981.
If I could pick a name for this, I'd probably call it "waiting".

2

Untitled Film Still #29, 1979.
This used to be my favourite. Not anymore. Still interesting though.

3

Untitled #94, 1981.
I like this one. I'm not sure why, but I think its because of the simple clothes. I could almost invision her pulling out a beretta and turning out to be in some kind of secret service/military type group... I've watched WAY too many 007 movies...
