Oh, these are so exquisite! The details are amazing, and their facial expressions are small and yet so revealing. My favorite part is the hands. They're so delicate and expressive, and I can just see the hand of the reaching for the cookie and completing the motion, rather than just hanging static in midair. (Or maybe she's trying to choose...?)

And, I do love your handwriting. :"D I'm trying to improve my cursive, but it has a long way to go.

(Sorry if I sound a bit strange, it's the first day back to school after break and I have to adjust!)

Let us give thanks to The Builder, for He hath formed my hands with fingers. And behold, my fingers interlock like cogs on a gear. I am part of His unbeholdable machine, and therein lies my salvation.

Again, your warm and sophisticated personality shines threw your work. It takes years absorbing history and reference books to craft these elaborate outfits. Even if one just looked them, it wouldn't be as pulled together and complete as these are. Well done, your attention to the world around you and it's past has rewarded you in full.:)
