When run through my life-filter, this appears to be more of a "frustrated, weary" epose/expression. Whatever the intent, it is very well done.

Great portrait. I would disagree though that they are all "unsung" though. Some models transcend time and are immortal, their own lives long lost, but as the subject of an artist... forever.

How true this is. After drawing and painting quite a few of them, I know that that is how they must feel. after hours of poses.
