The Expression is Sad but i like it because is someone that is connecting with the viewer. I will check the color stage, white hair, often has yellow , blues, and more subtle tones in affected by the reflected colors. This portrait is 2 times better in B/W with more contrast between beard and skin. imo
I hope this helps a bit. Anyway, one good strong point is how deep the eyes are. 
Thank you, I will review what you tell me.
Thanks again
Thank you for taking the time to value my work.
If you are right in what you say that there are more shades of color, I have others in which I used those shades. But in this case I was not displeased with the result. Maybe I am wrong.
Thanks again
Your paintings always make me think of El Greco and therefore slight distortions only ad to intensity of expression.

El Greco is one of my favorite painters and yes, I really like the expressions in his portraits.
In fact, one of my Emails is domenicosgreco @ …
