It’s Pumpkin time!
Don’t you love the Fall? It brings crisp starry nights and the sweet smell of pumpkin spice. Not to mention kids in costumes asking for treats and little black cats playing tricks. Why not have some fun painting this adorable black kitty peaking from behind a plump pumpkin on a clear starry night in acrylics under Sabine’s guidance? Your finished masterpiece will go perfectly with all your fall decorations!
Bring a snack and beverage if you’re inclined to nibble and sip while you paint! All art materials included.
