Thomasin,

These are wonderful just as they are! Even though the first one is very rough, you ought to win a medal for just attempting it. In the second one, I love the colors in the flesh and the green light in the eye. You make it seem easy to describe form with color and not much value change, but it really very hard for most people to do--you have to be very good at observation and delight in your ability even if you are not sure of the results, and this I admire in you and your work.
