Pet Portraits in Ink and Watercolour

Learn to paint a fun pet portrait with Etchr’s Resident Artist, Jill McLean (@jill.a.mclean). She’ll show how to structure a pet sketch composition, pencil in the initial sketch then capture essential elements in ink. You’ll add watercolour in layers to add colour and value range to make your sketch pop off the paper. Jill will also teach you to create texture with ink and her favourite neutralizing mixes for fur.

This class is suitable for absolute beginners.
