Cindy, what about a boy? He could be a teenager or a little boy. You already have two girls, so someone is predictably going to ask whether you paint males also!
The main thing is figuring out who you are targeting and what kind of portraits they are most likely to commission. My intuition tells me you shouldn't try to hit too many markets at once. If you paint a man, it shows your versatility, but most (?) portraits of men seem to be job-related. So you would be hitting another market. Not that you can't do it, but people like to focus on one thing at once and you are trying to put ideas in their heads.
