Create a one-of-a-kind painting of your special pet 🐈 🐶 No drawing skills required! In this Paint Your Pet Portrait class, your pet’s photo will be transformed into a simple, beginner-friendly illustration style design made especially for you.
At class, each guest will receive a color printout of their individual pet, along with a demonstration of a very easy tracing/transfer method to get the image onto the canvas. I’ll also provide guidance on matching and mixing paint colors, so you feel confident choosing your colors before you begin.
Once your design is transferred, you’ll paint at your own pace using smooth shapes and easy techniques. I’ll be available throughout the class to answer general questions and offer help as needed, while keeping the experience relaxed and enjoyable.
