The direction I'm heading

The thing that i have seemed to be lacking in the last couple of projects is a direction that i want to take my work in and have a set theme/meaning to the images. They kind of have a real open sort of point to them. So my main goal that i want to aim for is to try and make it so that they have a clear intent and reasoning. Not just a nice image of something random i found in my house. What the angle I'm going to take is is not quite clear to me yet but i am going to try my hardest to find one that gets me into the spirit of the still life genre...
