We will only sketch the pet. * Email that photo along with your full name and a good contact phone number to CreativeCanvasParty@Gmail.com. Do this for each person coming (if paying for friends). Please put the date of the event in the subject line of the email. One pet per canvas as 2 pets can take too long to paint.
