Christmas Pet Portrait Workshop

Capture your furry friend's charm on canvas at this fun, laid-back pet portrait painting workshop led by artist Steph Christie. Join artist Stephanie Christie, whose pet portraits are currently exhibited at Platform, for a relaxed, guided workshop where you’ll create your own acrylic pet portrait on a 20 × 20 cm canvas. When you book, send us a clear photograph of your pet to [email protected]. Steph will sketch their outline onto your canvas before the workshop and prepare your own reference photograph and simple light, mid-tone and dark painting guides. During the session, Steph will guide you through building your portrait using simple shapes and colours, with plenty of practical hints, encouragement and help along the way. No drawing or painting experience is needed. You’ll leave with a finished painting of your much-loved pet, created by you, and an easy painting technique you can use for future creative projects. A lovely opportunity to get creative and make something personal to treasure or give as a special Christmas gift.
