Happy (almost) Valentine’s Day, fellow painters!
Ah, the day of love, roses, and lots of pink and red… Plus, it’s a day to celebrate both the people and things we love, like painting.
That’s why we here at Canvas Academy want to offer you a chance to celebrate the love of painting with us—all by making this beautiful handmade card design, emulating a red rose tied up with a pretty pink bow! It’s all part of a full, in-depth watercolor class, which is tailored to beginners of all ages.
Feel free to take the card-making class multiple times, make the card as many times as you’d like, and share it with others. Let’s just get creative together!
