Your furry friend indeed needs to be immortalized for posterity.
From a conceptual idea through various planning and executing of ideas the participant will create one or two finished pieces of their furry friend. Watercolor, acrylic, gouache, watercolor pencils and watercolor crayons can all be used in this workshop. We will begin very simply with easy-to-understand steps and progress as we move along. Bring a photocopy of the pet you wish to paint (8 1/2 x 11) and/or bring photos on an iPad/laptop/or phone.
