Mushroom Paint & Sip
Netty is hosting a watercolour paint & sip at three locations for Fungi Feastival.
Anyone can come and have fun at a Paint and Sip Party. No experience is needed, you'll be guided step by step. Gather some friends or come on your own. You'll leave feeling great and with a gorgeous painting you did yourself! Everything you need for the painting is provided, including an apron. This session gives you the choice of 4 different painting styles, plus you can customise each with colours and details of your choosing. Of course I'll demonstrate every step of the way and give you as much or a little individual support as you'd like. We're painting on 30 x 40cm ready-to-hang stretched canvas with acrylic paints.
