ONSITE: Alcohol Ink Portraits of a Special Person or Pet
Create a one-of-a-kind gift for a loved one using just a frame, alcohol ink, and a pen! Using student-provided imagery (from photos or online), we will recreate a treasured image of a person, pet, house, or anything at all onto a pre-purchased standard glass frame. The result is a beautiful, colorful and homemade picture that can be displayed proudly throughout the year.
