Whoops, Elizabeth, I don't know why I assumed it was a female; I think the hair looks softer and more feminine in your pastel than in the photo, and the chin is less well defined, too. So I read it as a woman and then didn't let the slightly more masculine appearance in the photo deter me. In any case it's very nice, and please don't let your subject in on my error! He would probably not be amused. I am sure that if you knew him and saw the painting there would be no doubt in your mind about his gender.

There are a lot of very accomplished professionals on this Forum and perhaps people get weary of saying, "That's great!" over and over. And some paintings seem to strike a chord, whether positive or negative. Just keep posting, Elizabeth.
