Is “Painting and Vino” Gutsy? What Do You Think?
My eyes look a bit sleepy, and that was before the vino. I blame my cousin’s camera.
On the day after Valentine’s Day, I signed up for a class on the Living Social app called: which took place at the Balboa Inn, a beautiful beach side resort, in southern California.
Since I did not receive flowers from a “loved” one on Valentine’s Day, I thought I would paint my own flowers and enjoy some vino, with my cousin, and about 40 other people.
Here are the two examples of what we were supposed to paint
This is what the art teacher’s flowers looked like.
As you can see, these two paintings were the examples of what we were supposed to paint, and since I love bright colors, I couldn’t wait to start painting.
For only $25, we were each given a blank canvas, 5 different size paint brushes, as much paint as we needed, an easel, a large water cup, and paper towels.
This class was packed
I enjoyed the step-by-step instructions given by our art teacher, who came up to my painting, and said, “You’re the rebel painter; love it,” which made me happy.
My painting was nick-named the “REBEL PAINTING” by my art teacher, and I loved the name.
Since I went against the rules, and did my own colors, I was thrilled to be one of the non-conformists.
My cousin also painted a different color vase, and this was her first time EVER, to paint on a canvas.
My cousin’s first painting ever.
This was so much fun, and reminded me of how much I love to paint with acrylics. I shall definitely sign up for more evenings like this one. We painted for 3 hours, and each month, on the Living Social App, you can see the various artists paintings on a calendar, and select the one you want to paint. A great way to decorate your house for only $25/painting, and it’s your own work.
Do you want to try this? If so, check out if they have one in your area.
