Figure Composition

Charcoal on paper, 43x59cm: This dark sketch has lain for more than two years in a cardboard box unloved, unappreciated, an undeveloped wondering when it's time will come. Well a few days ago I was in an equally dark place and pulled this out to see what i could make of it. The original souce material is long gone although I do recognise somewhere in it's murky depths a couple of figure sketches I made in a lighter frame of mind.
Charcoal on paper, 43x59cm: This drawing (above) was made to reprise what i had already done to try to get back into it and bring something new into the light.
Charcoal on paper, 43x59cm: In preparation for painting I made this linear drawing to try to bring forth the bones of an image before plunging in to painting.
Oils on canvas, 50x80cm: Three Figures Standing Together. If anyone can help me with what this may be about I would be eternally grateful!
