Carlos,
Thanks so much! Perhaps I went out on a limb trying to create a painting in which the figures are not central, but you are very generous in your comments. Working on these (relatively) small paintings reminded me how accurate one has to be in the details, even when the details are just suggested. There really isn't much to that hand, for instance, but it has to be painted just right or else it will not read right, as you know. I think, after painting these, that changing scale every once in a while is a good mental/intuitive exercise.
