The Association équestre du Pontiac held a paint afternoon last Sunday in the Luskville Community Centre in order to fundraise.
The event took the form of a tutorial hosted by local artist Jeanette Schever. Using acrylic paint, Schever walked participants through the finer details of painting a picture of a red barn during winter.
This included techniques on how to portray shadows, how trees in the background contrasted against the horizon, how to paint tree branches, the off-white colour of snow, how to write letters using a paintbrush, how to best mix paint and much more over the two-hour-plus event.
The Association équestre du Pontiac plans to host two more events in the spring, including a horse day and tack sale on April 29 and a cowboy racing clinic on May 13.
