Graphite Portrait drawing of an Old Bearded Man

Hello everyone,
I hope you are good?
I would love to share this drawing I did with you all about an anonymous old man. The inspiration for the drawing came as a result of the looks of a friend of mine who started spring out grey hair at a young age and I decided to give him a surprise, he was so frightened that in no time he would look like an old man. I did this drawing in memory of my friend. The details of the drawing are shadowy and in full content. The drawing is kind of sketchy because i wanted to try out something new. My brother alway make light drawing with little depth but the contrast, highlights are well represented. I wanted to try his technique but i guess I would have to give it more time to sink in. But that turn out was great and I hope you see through the expression on his face too.
I did this drawing with a 10B Bianyo pencil and I hope you all love it feel free to drop your comments, thank you all for stopping by to read my post.
