Very nice portrait. The hair is especially well drawn, good values.

I would look at the highlight on the bridge of the nose. On your drawing it is placed about halfway between the two eye corners. It should be about 1/3 from the left and 2/3 to the right eye.
And I also think that a darker shadow on the back of the T-shirt would balance the fine contrast of the hair and background.
