Paint a Pup Portrait: Beginner Painting Workshop in Sydney
Love dogs and fancy a creative afternoon? Join us at The Dale Library in Chippendale for a relaxed, beginner-friendly dog portrait painting workshop.
You'll create your own colourful dog portrait without having to start from scratch. We'll prepare your canvas with a textured background and a pre-drawn dog face, leaving you free to choose your colours, add your own style and enjoy the process. NO drawing skills required.
Choose from a selection of dog breeds on the day, or submit a photo of your own dog when booking and we'll prepare a personalised canvas for you.
No painting experience needed. Just bring yourself and a love of dogs!

A Little Sunday Crafternoon
This workshop is all about taking a few hours out of your week to make something, meet people and enjoy a creative activity without the pressure of getting everything perfect.
Come with a friend, bring someone who'd love to try something new, or join us on your own. We'll provide guidance along the way, so you can settle in, have a chat, enjoy some snacks and focus on creating a portrait you'll be happy to take home.
Tea, coffee and light refreshments are included. BYO drinks and snacks are welcome, too. If you have any allergies or dietary requirements, please let us know beforehand.
