I need help identifying these paintings, please!

I fell inlove with these two paintings, and I can't seem to find out the artist's name. Hopefully, someone out there knows!

They look like Rococo paintings. In the style of Boucher or Fragonard, but maybe by an Italian like G.D. Tiepolo. Anyway a few minutes' searching didn't turn up any matches, so that's all I can suggest.

John- this at least gives me a starting point, so thank you!

Thanks to anyone who gave identifying these paintings a try...I have been obsessed with locating the artist, and I have finally done so- these are by Nicolas Lancret, and are portaying the Belgian Ballerina Camargo. Whew! Thanks again.
