Brushes & Birds: Owl Edition
October Portrait: Northern White-faced Owl, Apollo!
Who-o-o’s big eyes are glowing orange?! Kick off the National Aviary’s Owl-O-Ween festivities a few days early by joining Maria DeSimone Prascak of Maria’s Ideas (mariasideas.com) for a special sp-OO-ky evening edition of Brushes & Birds!
Grab your friends or plus one and create your very own BOO-tiful portrait using Maria’s easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions. Before class, meet a National Aviary Animal Ambassador owl and purchase one (or two!) alcoholic beverages from our friends at Atria’s Specialty Catering. Scrumptions bites will also be available for purchase.
And don’t worry...no prior drawing skills are required; a tracer for easy design transfer will be provided.
