Your work clearly shows talent and skill. (I particularly like the couple in the sunlight on your site.)
At this point, WHAT you choose to paint (especially what reference you choose to work from) will have the greatest effect on whether or not your samples bring you commissions. Study the work of artists on SOG whose work you really like and think carefully before you begin your next portrait.
Once you decide on a subject that you find compelling, plan out the composition, clothing, lighting and props. Then shoot your own photos (with NO flash). Reading the sections on good reference photos on the Forum will give you lots of excellent tips on shooting the right kind of photos to paint from.
Good luck and I look forward to seeing your next creation!
