The bride study really stands out for me. What about some method of 3-d where the blocks were either raised or the white was a mask and you only really saw the painting like the study directly in front. Or maybe something like where you paint the canvas, cut into strips and then weave back together. The others especially the first self portrait ones have a circuit board feel to them. Why not paint over some used ones and let the patterns guide the paint. You're the painter though, just thought I'd throw out some ideas.
When I first went by ICON, my brain goes "MADONNA!" Later, when I was looking at the pictures around it, my brain thought "Is there a bit of Mona Lisa in ICON?" As I looked at the image again, I could see how some tweaking of the feathered hair and face could make the image look more like the Virgin Mary. I don't know if you want to play with the aspect of morphing these or other female icons into a single image. Let the viewer decide if that really is Madonna or the Madonna depicted in the work.
