You are so right, Thomasin. Thank you for your observation. Now that I look at them the shoulders do look like a cardboard cutout. I was just looking at one of your paintings and admiring the way you did the arm and shoulder girdle. I definitely do have a problem with keeping form from flattening, especially in areas where one must observe surfaces that are not defined by an edge but must be defined by the subtle changes of tone that you refer to. I love the way that you are able to manage this problem.
