Bring your own beverage & lunch/snack.
Homework to do BEFORE class: Paint canvas.
I painted canvas white and picked up a tiny bit of paynes grey and "slip slapped" it on blending into the wet white paint as I did each area. Slip slap is to make large x's with brush and blending a color into wet background in a soft blotchy look.
Options: you could paint it a solid color (medium grey) and you could also add a tiny bit of blue if you want.(in any method.)
If you want a different color background, thats ok too. Just don't be extremely light so the white areas of feathers show up.
