Three sessions: Fridays, December 6, 2024 - December 20, 2024 | 10:00 PM to 1:00 PM 

This holiday season come join us as we take a little inspiration from our little furry, feathery, and scaly companions! 

Designed for beginners and advanced students, this workshop helps you capture their beloved pets in a direct and loose manner of painting. Working from photographic references, you will learn to quickly simplify complex imagery from the start and gradually build a painterly reproduction of the subject. This class seeks to help students better understand principles of design, color/tonal theory, and composition.

Tickets are nonrefundable. This class runs rain or shine.
