Directions

• Create your pet portrait on paper, a canvas or watercolor paper from home. Please keep the size of your submission to 8.5” x 11” or smaller.
• Choose an animal to look at while painting. You can use a photograph to create your work of art or a live model. If you do not own a pet, choose an animal you’d love to own as a pet (unicorns and dragons are also options!) .
• On your canvas, lightly sketch your pet in pencil.
• Next fill in your pet design with color. You can use acrylic paint, watercolor paints, colored pencils, graphite pencils, pastels, pens or markers. Mix media to create a more intriguing painting.
• Paint or draw a background.
• Enjoy your pet portrait and share your creation with others!

In-Person Art Show at the Round Rock Public Library

• Print your first name and age legibly on the back, along with your pet’s name.

• Your pet portrait will be displayed in our Round Rock Public Library Pet Art Show on the 1st floor or the 3rd floor throughout August. These locations are accessible to the public, therefore we can not guarantee that we’ll be able to return all artwork.
