Painting Classes for Christmas!

Hello, blog readers!  

I have an exciting announcement to make.  We are holding painting workshops at our home in Lebanon during the month of December to raise money for our adoption!  There are some workshops for adults, some for kids, and some for both.  I will sketch the picture onto the canvas before the painters arrive, and we go through it step by step together as a class.  No painting experience or art expertise required!  

Upon arrival, your canvas will look something like this:

When you leave, it will look more like this:




You don't need to know how to paint - we'll go over a few helpful tips together before we get started, then paint your painting as a group!  I'll be happy to help with some finishing touches, such as a bit of outlining and some snowflakes added to the background.  

The price of each painting class depends on the size of the painting.  Times and prices are listed below.  Reservations are a must!  We have limited seats available for each class, and I'll need to make sure we have your picture sketched and waiting for you when you arrive. You are welcome to stay and help your child or watch your child paint, or you may like to paint along with them!  You may, instead, want to use those two hours to go get some errands done and pick your child up after class.
