Over four weeks, you'll turn it into a finished gouache portrait that doesn't just look like an animal. It looks like \u003cem\u003eyour\u003c\/em\u003e animal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis isn't four sessions of copying a photograph. The first two weeks are about the decisions that make a portrait work — choosing a strong reference, simplifying shapes, building a color palette from your pet's actual fur (a black cat is never just black), and learning what gouache can do. Then weeks three and four are sustained painting time, so you finish one portrait you're genuinely excited to hang.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe four weeks:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eWeek 1, choose your reference and design your composition. Week 2, mix your pet's palette and learn gouache on practice sheets. Week 3, establish the whole painting — big shapes before whiskers. Week 4, details, personality, and knowing when to stop. We end with all the portraits side by side with their reference photos, which is exactly as fun as it sounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYou'll take home:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eyour finished gouache pet portrait, plus your sketches, color studies, and a technique sampler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGood to know:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eNo painting experience needed.
