Kim, I know I keep saying this but I really do think that most people... anybody not young, fabulous or picturesque.. look better indoors.
I was also thinking tonight that the only time I've ever been happy with my portraits of "older" people was when I've done at least some work on them from life. They start talking, and I find them interesting, and I think I paint them as being more interesting. (Or else they fall asleep, which is okay, too.)
