Join us for a workshop that will delve into capturing character in pet portraits, with a focus on the eyes as the windows to the soul.

Teacher Valerie Larson will introduce two helpful methods of transferring a photo image to an 8” x 10” Aquabord or watercolor paper (attendees can choose the surface they're most comfortable with). These methods will allow you to easily achieve correct proportions and have more fun with the portrait-painting process!

All supplies will be provided via the supply fee.
