Are you a Van Gogh or a Monet?

Greetings all!

Did you know about Paintnite? It's a fun way to spend 2-3 hours while discovering an artist within you! This is a great idea for a date, friends’ or family gathering, or going solo.

You can choose a painting on Paintnite and buy a ticket right then and there - current price is $45. I prefer to buy discounted tickets on Groupon (search for "paintnite" and check the fine print!), which you then apply as payment on Paintnite site.

The events are held at restaurants and bars in different locations. You can have lunch or dinner first or you can order something while you paint. I find that a glass of wine helps unlock the creativity - just do not dip the paintbrush in your wine glass! The instructors are amazing and walk you through the process step by step, brush by brush, color by color - similar to painting by numbers. Three hours later you have a painting that you can put on your wall or gift to a friend! Here is one of mine!   

Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Every artist was first an amateur” – how often in our adult responsibility-filled lives, do we have a chance to play amateurs? 

Drop me a line - I would love to hear from you! Let me know if you prefer your comments remain private.
