Charcoal Portrait 3

in my art class, we were given the assignment to draw something as it was coming into focus, giving us the opportunity to see it as lights and darks before we could add our brain's desire to simplify to it

this is my third attempt, the first two were even worse and i forgot my charcoal so i used conte crayon, which is no substitute unfortunately

he kinda looks like abe lincoln no?

i dont know the model's name but the original image was by chuck close
