Portrait Painting SMC: Class #6

Ok its official. I appear to currently be incapable of painting in the same style as my instructor and the rest of my class. When we were finished today my instructor cane up and said " you know you paint in a very stylized way right?" "Have you taken a lot of painting classes?". To which i responded yes, and no i havent had any painting classes since high school. She then asked me about college classes and i said no. Yes i went to an "art school" but we did more marker rendering or model painting. In fact the only "painting" class that I had in college was an airbrush painting class. So maybe its the marker rendering techniques I learned that are influencing my painting style.  Who knows? I wasn't very good at rendering. Mostly its my underdrawings that need work. Im not very good at perspective. I'm sad to say that this was my last class. But I am going to try to continue doing one painting per week at the least.
