The reflection in his glasses, the composition, the softness in tone, and such is really sweet. His lips are a little wonky though, but the nonetheless -- kick awesome picture.

I also like the piano keys reflected in his glasses. It's a very charming drawing.

For me there is something just a little confuseing in the upper lip area. I think the lips look great, and definately belong to Ray Charles! Maybe it's just the photo/scan, but it's hard to tell where the gums end and the lips begin.
I don't mean to insult you, what does my opinion mean anyway eh?

Oh, that's cool. I wish sometimes that da had a feature where you could upload a pic of the reference photo you used into the description box. That would be so useful!
