"Brew & Brush" with artist Mia Rudolph!

Join us for "Brew & Brush" on Sunday, February 25 or Sunday, March 11, from 1:00-3:00 pm. In this class, you'll create your own llama / alpaca painting under the instruction of our friend, local artist Mia Rudolph!

Welcome all levels of painting abilities! In this class, you will create a 16" x 20" painting with acrylic on canvas! Mia will guide you through the process of painting this subject, pictured here, of an adorable llama / alpaca. This painting is easier to make than it looks! Mia will be instructing the class step-by-step and using stencils as well. The canvas, supplies, snacks, and door prize are all provided in the cost of your class.

About the artist instructing your class: Mia Rudolph is a local artist who works in acrylics, color pencil, and other mediums. She is a full-time school nurse and has 3 children. Mia attended WIU and studied studio art. It is Mia's colorful artwork that we have on display in our taproom here at Wishful Acres Farm & Brewery!
