Margaret,
I especially like the second one because of the way you controlled the planes of the face and the transition of forehead into her hair. Also, the eyes are extraordinary. I admire the lighting in your recent pieces; the light strikes the eyes at a certain angle, enters the iris, and reflects back on the opposite side with incredible luminosity. I think your portraits would sell very well in a gallery because they speak to the viewer so powerfully. You don't have to know these people to connect with them.
