Library Cat
I painted this for a friend of mine who loves cats and has built her own library beside her house. The video was easy to follow and the instructor gave several great tips. I totally enjoyed painting this and hope my friend loves it.

Library Cat
I enjoyed the colors and it was interesting to learn about “perspective” in painting. It was peaceful “Me Time” painting the Library Cat, which I painted to look like my cat!

Great Book Club Party Event
I’m in two book clubs and every so often each club likes to get together for a book-related but not strict book club event. I did a painting party with each book club and both were a blast! It was fun seeing how each person tried to customize it to match their own pet. Since I don’t have a cat and I did two different paint night groups, I painted the instructed cat the first time then my dog the second. It took me some extra time to finish after everyone else but so much fun! We all love Claudia as an instructor and love seeing her show us her pet as well! Love this platform and love that we can use the tutorial multiple times.

Wonderful Painting Party
I bought 5 kits for my 7 years old daughters birthday. They had a blast doing it. Though the two who were 7 had a harder time focusing for the entire time the couple older girls were able to focus the whole time. For younger kids maybe break it up into two sessions but it was such a fun time and I have a kit for me and my.friend and can not wait to try it

Great tutorials
I'm not sure which painting this review is for, but I've enjoyed all of the paintings tutorials that I've purchased. I'm running out of room to hang them. I hope to do more as time allows. I attached my Library Cat painting. I painted it to match a cat I once had that I thought would look good with the background.

Can I really create my own painting?
Yes, our tutorials are designed for beginners with no painting experience needed. Our artists will guide you from a blank canvas to the finished painting each step of the way.

If you're unhappy with the kit for any reason, email customersupport@paintingtogogh.com within 60 days and we'll make it right.
