Throwback Thursday 2016

So last time I posted some of my first paintings I did when I just got started painting so now we will move on to the year of 2016. In 2016 I started to really get into painting and I wanted to see improvements in my paintings.

  I was able to take a class from a local artist who I am not going to name because I'm going to say some negative things and some are there fault but also I take some blame myself. The amount of money I paid for the class was kinda steep but it was for an entire month 3  classes a week. Due to my schedule I had to break up my classes over 2 months so I took the 1st 2 weeks of the course and came back the next month to take the last two weeks. The 1st 2 weeks were pretty good I was learning the instructor was teaching, the problem came when I returned to take the last 2 weeks. Basicly the last two weeks I hardly learned anything because the instructor had 2 other students who were just starting their class from the beginning so I was basicly repeating the 1st two weeks, also 2 classes were canceled an never made up.

 We were supposed to complete 2 painting in this course, I never even finished one, I was left with a half finished painting. Now I will take some blame I should have never taken this course thinking I could do 2 weeks then come back a month later and resume the course but I was desperate to learn and improve. Things could have been done differently, but there are what they are. Again I won't name names because this person is not a bad person and is talented and a pretty good instructor.


  Engough crying and complaining let's look at some paintings the 1st is Thanos and this is the painting that came from the art class when I left it was about half done I had to finish it on my own and wasn't very happy about it. I believe it shows you can see the end result was finished just so I could be done with it. Next we have Captain  America , Spider man , Wolverine Vs Batman and one of my favs Speed Racer which is on a very large 4ft x 3ft canvas that pretty much takes up most of a living room wall. I think you can see that I continued to learn on my own, but I would take a class again if I was able fit whitin my schedule and completed straight through. Till next time.
