Event Description:

Join Toni from Easely Does It for a relaxed, family-friendly acrylic painting session full of colour, creativity, and imagination.

In this fun, step-by-step workshop, children and adults will paint Rainbow Zebra — a vibrant twist on a classic animal, featuring bold rainbow stripes, playful patterns, and plenty of personality. Think bright colours, creative freedom, and a zebra like you’ve never seen before!

The session is uplifting, expressive, and perfect for painters of all abilities. 🎨🦓🌈

Working on a 20 × 30cm stretched canvas, families will explore how to:

✨ Paint a zebra using simple shapes and easy techniques

✨ Create bold, colourful stripes and patterns

✨ Blend and layer bright colours for impact

✨ Add backgrounds and fun finishing details

No painting experience is needed — Toni will guide everyone through each stage with encouragement and easy-to-follow tips, helping both grown-ups and young artists feel confident and proud of their colourful creations.

All materials are included — just bring your imagination and a sense of fun.
