Portrait of a bearded black man (viewed in profile)

I came across this image online some time ago and decided to save it as a reference for a possible portrait study. Well I finally got around to painting him and so I wanted to share it here with you. It was painted on a 20" x 24" sized canvas. Thanks for taking time to look. All feedback is appreciated.

This is really cool, @Leo2015 ! Beautiful profile. I just love the hair. What helps this work so well is the excellent drawing and the good control of values across the picture. And, as usual, great brushwork.
