Learn how to paint your cat using watercolors!

We will start by outlining our cats with a black, waterproof pen and then layer on colors using a wet on dry technique. At the end, we will add a colorful background using a wet on wet technique.

But you don't know how to draw your cat? NO PROBLEM! The instructor will come to class with your cat drawn on your paper! That's right- this isn't a drawing class- it's a painting class! Let's not waste time on drawing!

The instructor, Emily, was an elementary teacher for 10 years before becoming a full-time artist and she’s excited to get back into a classroom again to do what I love: teach!
