December 13, 1972 Dear Nell Blaine, Yesterday I saw your show for the second time. Again, the richness and glow, the joy of life overwhelmed me.- The variations on the same subject especially fascinated me: the shimmering water between two boats - (especially "Blue Boats" and "Two Boats"); the exuberant flowers to meaningfully differently painted in "Poppies and Gerbina" and "Fiesta".- Other favorites were the "Grassy Slope and Trees", and the "Window by the Harbor", also the intense "West Wharf Bouquet". All is daring, true, strong - what a joy to see! Thank you, Nell Blaine. Admiringly yours, Vera [[?]] Just answered 3-31-73 I wrote her poetry reading coming up soon - N.
