I love the confident, content, knowing gaze of the old lady. Thats my favorite. The first is a bit disturbing. Is her identity taken away by a stroke of the brush hiding her eyes? or is she blindfolded? I feel she is hidden from us even as she reveals her body. But why? it feels almost like she is being exploited. I think thats why it bothers me.

It's interesting what you write about the first one. I don't know why the artist decided to hide the eyes, maybe to raise the level of mystery, but I don't think he meant the lady is exploited.
