Thomasin,

Sorry to be so late in responding. I simply forgot I hadn't already said something! I, too, was thinking (and marveling) about how much your work has developed since you joined this forum. In the scheme of things, it isn't a very long time, and what you say in paint is now incredibly integrated and strong. I have no doubt we will see great things from you.

I love the placement of the figure, the suggestions of edges that appear and disappear, the integration of figure and background. But for me the most striking thing about this painting is the feeling. I see very few works of art that express feeling without sentimentality. You do it every time and this one does it remarkably well.
