💙 Family Painting Session – “Sunflower Coo”
Join Toni from Easely Does It for a heartwarming, family-friendly acrylic painting session inspired by the beauty of the countryside.
In this delightful step-by-step workshop, children and adults will paint Sunflower Coo — an adorable young Highland calf surrounded by a field of bright golden sunflowers. With its fluffy coat, sweet expression, and cheerful floral setting, this charming painting is guaranteed to bring smiles all round.
Working on a 8×10″ stretched canvas, families will explore how to:
✨ Paint a fluffy Highland calf using simple shapes and easy techniques
✨ Create texture and movement in the cow’s shaggy coat
✨ Paint vibrant sunflowers full of colour and character
✨ Add a bright countryside background
✨ Use colour and layering to bring your artwork to life
No painting experience is needed — Toni will guide everyone through each stage with encouragement and simple demonstrations, helping both grown-ups and young artists create a masterpiece they’re proud to take home. 🎨🐮
All materials are included — just bring your imagination and enjoy a wonderfully creative morning together.
