“Highland Cow” Paint-Along
$25
Paint this cute “Heilan coo” with us on Saturday, June 4, at 1pm CT.

Register EARLY to have time to prep your drawing. Rita will send you the Zoom invitation, the reference photo, some surface prep info, and some tips that include alternative underpainting methods in case you don’t have what she uses.
Rita will be using pastel with an acrylic-based underpainting, but you can use the medium of your choice. Plenty of instruction will focus on values and temperature which are universal to all color mediums. The paint-along will last about 2 hours.
(Registration includes a link to the video which will be ready just a few days later, so if you miss the date, no worries!)
