Calling all pet lovers! Our Fort Myers Paint Your Pet fundraiser event is coming up! We don’t mean to actually paint ON your pet…this is a Pet Portrait event so please don’t bring your fur baby.

Please send your favorite pet photo to [email protected] by noon on Tuesday September 23rd. The best photos are taken at eye level and close-up. If you aren’t sure which photo to use you can submit more than one and we’ll help you pick! Only one pet per photo.
The canvas size for this painting is custom to your pet’s photo. Available sizes are 12×16 or 16×20 – depending how the image prints. All artists will be provided with a pre-sketched canvas and a print of their pet’s photo for color reference. Only ONE pet per photo as you won’t have the time or stamina to attempt more then one.
Beginners encouraged! Leave your stress at the door and enjoy a fun afternoon in creative company. Our Master Artist will provide all the guidance you need to paint a pet portrait shining with paw-sonality. Learn expert techniques to create your furry friend’s portrait.
