I’ve been doing digital drawings but this is my first real pencil on paper drawing in years.
Its 5.5”x8.5”. Graphite on paper.

Comments and criticism are welcome.
 
Nicely done! You captured that shadow on the V Right lens just right I think. A nit: the top of the frame on the V Left should be bit wider near the nose, not as wide, or the other frame could be adjusted. Nice piece.
 
Thank you everyone.

Thanks ntl.
Its not really a shadow. The frame there was behind the curve of the lenses which also distorted my view of the frame itself.

The other lenses I see your point and while looking at it now I noticed that I missed the edge of the frame behind the lens in the viewers top right corner of it. (There’s a tiny smudge there that tricks the eye if you don’t look carefully.) It looks like the very top or the frame was originally wider but I erased something to match it with the part I had drawn instead of realizing I missed the side.

I’ll probably try to touch it up a little bit there.
 
well done 16ga .. for future I would add a shadow as that would make it stand out even more ..
 
Very nice sketch- glasses are tricky! I agree with the suggestions to shadow for grounding your subject, but you've done well.
 
Thanks everyone.
I had thought about adding shadows but didn't. I didn't really feel like adding a background too this one and the picture I took to work from didn't have good lighting.
