Funder of the COVID-19 vaccine and lifter of spirits everywhere, celebrate DOLLY by painting this homage to America’s sweetheart and our very own queen of Tennessee. And just in time too, January is Dolly’s birthday month!

If you are purchasing supplies, this painting canvas comes pre-sketched, so your painting experience will be easy peasy. Class instruction will cover color mixing and brushwork techniques, but fret not: the drawing will already be done for you! If you are purchasing your own supplies, a PDF of the outline will be sent for you to print and transfer onto the canvas. The transfer must be done prior to the class.
