Description
He is pondering, and so am I.
I wonder why I so seldom paint men.
Of course there are so many more women models available, but still??
I am drawn to beautiful women faces, but men often have more character.
Have to mix a little more I think.
Here is one man anyway!
Have a nice weekend guys!

He looks so intellectual, great job, love the color tones, you have an absolutely unique style!
And this one is very beautiful!:) Well done!
I have that same 'issue'.....lol.......i love women....however ,i once in awhile have to include a guy! Doh! That said, you have done a great job here.
the title fits perfect of his expression !! excellent done !!
@ 5391151, the difference is that I am a woman :-)
I hope that he makes the right decison after his pondering... beautiful and very emotive artwork, as usual!
A very beautiful result here, Gun. Nice change :)
there is a sadness that troubles his thoughts Very nice work
very beautiful portrait once more !!!
You're portraits are so awesome...this one ...it's how I am feeling right now.
You have captured the state of mind wonderfully Gun!
A super work with this male and he does have a lot of character. I hope you do use them more often as you capture their essence. Very well done.
Wonderful textures and light .. perhaps a man's face can take more rugged texture and stronger colors then a woman's? Marvelous portrait of this young man.
simply wonderful warm hugs, Linda
An interesting question, Gun! I tend to catch myself also thinking of female models more often, and what I can do with the camera..... I really like what you've done here, and the expression on his face-definitely one of reflection. The realism is out of this world, really. You do such a marvellous job with each of your character choices!
Interesting portrait!
I just love this. Simply great.
Great portrait,Gun:)!Fabulous expression!
This is super! I love the contemplative nature of this image (it fits the title, perfectly) and your model has compelling features. I agree that male faces tell completely different stories than female faces: not surprising, as we base our assumptions of characters on their sex...and admittedly, males don't get as much attention in terms of subtle emotions or "stories". This is an outstanding image.
