Seeking inspiration!

I've been painting again! Well, I'm trying to finish the two I've already started, but it seems to take ages. Next one I start will be in acrylic paint as it doesn't take as long to dry.
So some of you might recognise the one of the man in Paris. That one will just develop to be as close to my photography as I can manage. I have found a way to compare the pictures on my computer and I can see my shortcomings but am still quite pleased.

During my work on the blue one, however, I'm more open for input. This is regarding the blue area around the ages. I've been considering a Mucha style frame with patterns and stuff, but don't qiuite see that happening now. So, either I'll leave it blue, as it is with maybe another coat, or put dots on or stripes of green or yeallow or purple or or or ? It's a bit sci fi this paitning, I know, but there you go. I might be influenced by your comments, so what do you think?
