With the start of a new year, I decided to start a new project at the store. I thought it would be fun to teach again. Art & Libations is a class but more suited to today’s busy lifestyles. Come just one time or come as often as you like. Each lesson is complete within itself. Bring a little beverage of your own. Whatever it takes to get your creative juices going! We will all paint the same picture together and at the end of the session you will go home with your own masterpiece to hang. I provide all the supplies and all you have to do it show up!
In my mind I thought I would start it with just once a month on a Thursday evening. The first one would be January 17th. So I sent out a little email message to let people know what was going on and the first session filled in 2 days. So I decided to open another for the 31st and it filled in just a little over 3 hours!
The first session was last Thursday and the project was a pot of flowers. Everyone seemed to have a blast!
Everyone’s painting was a little different , but they all were really neat looking.
We had 18 total with 16 ladies and 2 gentlemen. Blanche stayed to take pictures for Four States Living Magazine ( I hope they turn out ok). My friend Brent called that afternoon and wanted to come be a helper - how could I refuse!!! He was a huge help as he is not only a painter but also a florist and designer. He was so encouraging as he let people know just what kinds of flowers each one of them had created! And gave them little tips on foliage, etc. It was such a fun time!
If you think you might be interested, just let us know!!
later

I am loving the blog business. And I am desperate to get some paint time. Your classes look like so much fun. Please keep writing. It's therapy for you and a pleasure to read.
