Ruchira,
Color and composition. Color and composition. Wonderful stuff. The most stunning, for me, is the woman in black veil. Nudes, for the most part, do not look directly at us. This way we can indulge in the beauty, the sensuality, the sexiness without feeling self-conscious. The black veiled woman holds your eyes with her own with an intensity. You can indulge for a moment or two in her partially bared body, but you must return to those intense captivating eyes. To indulge any longer, while she watches you, is to be disrespectful. She is very pleased that you find her attractive, but she wants you to know that she alone is in charge of her sexuality. Those eyes. Those eyes, Those eyes.

Ruchira, these are awesome paintings with striking colors! Very well done. I really liked the "Rain" the "Horseman" , "two women in veils" , your "Portrait" and the "Birds".
