"The Angel," "The Black Dress," and "Liz's Garden" stand out to me because of their poses, composition, wonderful drawing, and imaginative color (and scale!), but viewed all together, your body of work has a uniqueness and power that is inspiring and intensely "human," packed with feeling. You have the capacity to see beneath surface forms in your painting, and to grab hold of the "spirit" of your subject that is so difficult to do but for the most masterful of painters. I am praying right now that your painting is going well, that you are encouraged by the long way you have come, and the potential of more truly great paintings like these that are surely in your future. Congratulations for the devotion, discipline, and skill you have developed thus far. I am so glad I saw these. My very best to you and Jim.

They are wonderful. It is also so good to see nudes of well built men; 'morning' was brilliant. I particularly like the way you have caught the power of each presence.
