Painting With a Twist

Thanks, everyone for all the birthday wishes! I had a great weekend and got lots of great presents.  Friday night my best friend had a special activity planned….we went to a new place called “Painting With a Twist”.  You may also know it as Corks and Canvases or Cocktails and Canvases.  This place has only been open for a week or two in my town, and I didn’t even realize it existed, so it was a great surprise!

Here is the painting we were going to create:

And here’s how mine turned out:

So we started out with a blank canvas and of course our bottle of wine:

The instructor guided us through the process.  There was fun music playing in the background and wine, beer, and soft drinks available for purchase.  Some people even brought snacks like cheese, apple slices, and brownies. 

At this point, it’s a good idea NOT to drop your cell phone in the paint!

Making progress….    

And here we are with our finished paintings:

It was a really cool experience, if there is something like this where you live, I highly recommend it! I plan on going again with my mom.  It was so neat to see how everyone’s paintings turned out a little differently.  And the best part is, a few hours and a bottle of wine later, you end up with your very own artwork to display proudly!
