Paint Your Pet & Wine Tasting

Learn how to paint your pet with watercolor with local artist Alexandra Schmeling! No experience needed. After warming up with some exercises to get you introduced to watercolor, you will receive a 8x10 outline drawing of your pet based on a photo you submit and will be. Alex will guide you through how to paint your pet by offering individual guidance and feedback based on your specific painting. You will leave with a completed painting, a watercolor palette, and a brush to continue painting at home! Also, participants will enjoy a wine tasting and get to take home a complimentary logo wine glass!

**Upon registration, please email a photo of your pet to [email protected] so Alex can complete your outline before the class!**
