I certainly hope I didn't give the impression that I could fake my way through portraiture. I was strictly talking about answering questions with confidence when talking to clients. I have a long long way to go with my painting.

I am working at building a foundation, unfortunately I haven't found a local instructor or local workshop that can help with this. I've exhausted the drawing and portrait classes at the MFA art school here in Houston.
That being said, I find myself learning so much from this forum and advice from professional artists like you is invaluable to me. Thank you again for taking a look at this Sharon and for your advice.
