1. "Never bite the hand that feeds you." means have respect for the person that is nice to you (friend). The African mask (with a dark background) has a hand in its mouth. In this case the hand that is bitten did not respect the person who is biting. The head (is also dark but is high lighted with colour lines) of the image is depicted as a question mark and the hand in the mouth is in the shape of a spoon.
2. "The morning after." depicts a "Drunk-man" (face not recognized) leaning against a house for support and sitting on the ground with the empty rum bottles at his feet. Notice the white shoes (in the viewer's space) at the bottom of the composition leading the eyes to the white t-shirt. As a young boy 'growing-up' it was a scene i saw on Saturday or Sunday morning. Men laying drunk on the street or in a yard after a night of drinking 'brown-run'.
