Self Portrait

Half of a final project required me to choose an artist that had created a self portrait of themselves and mock their style for my own self portrait. I chose Andy Worhal because I really liked the style of one of his portraits, which is the second image listed below. It is very simple and just enough to get the main points across, but yet very powerful.

I think I achieved the style and am pretty please with the outcome. Although, when I look at myself in this portrait, I always feel like it can be improved. I guess that is the downside of self portraits. Especially when I am quite picky about certain things. This being one of them. Critiques are encouraged because I'd like to know how to improve this. Thanks!
