What will I paint?

In this class, you will learn how to paint a Short-Haired Tuxedo Cat using watercolors. You have the option to use the same reference photo I am using (located in the Resources Section) or you can use the skills you learn in this class to paint your own black and white cat.

What will we explore? 

  • Professional quality supplies that I use to create my own pet portraits

  • Using masking fluid to keep the whites of the paper clean

  • Building up our painting layer by layer

  • Painting fur around the neckline

  • Creating a colorful splash behind our pets

  • Using white gouache for the eyebrow hairs and other small, white details.

Skill Level of this Class

I recommend that you have at least a basic understanding of watercolors before taking this class. I also recommend using a 5×7 inch sheet of paper your first time painting this project.

This purchase is non-refundable
