Paint Your Pet

Paint your furbaby!

Duration

2.5 Hours

About

Our absolute favorite class! Yes - you heard it right; paint your pet night! Hosted ONCE A MONTH.  

We sketch it out - you paint it.  Portrait style!

How does it work? Once you confirm for class at the checkout, you will want to email us a photograph of your furbaby. Instructions are provided in your confirmation email following the checkout.

What To Expect

Our artists will sketch out your pet on the canvas prior to the day of class, and on the night of your class, you will paint your furbaby! Our local artist will help guide you, but please note; this is not a step-by-step class.  Our artist can give you tips and tricks and help you with color, but this is a free paint class.

You will have an amazing masterpiece of your special baby created all by yourself!

What To Know

  • Send a clean, clear photo of your pet, nothing blurry. If you have signed up for multiple pets, please send single pets at a time in each photo. (1x sketch per pet and booking).  1 PET PER BOOOKING/ PER PAINTING
  • The background of your painting will be a solid color - allowing you to spend time painting your pet.  So find a photo that is a great portrait of your pet - and do not worry about backrground items or toys.  We won't sketch those.
