Friday night Christina and I went to Painting With A Twist. It’s an art class type place where you can bring wine and snacks. Although I don’t know how you can eat while painting but some did. So what you do is go online and check their calendar and pick out a painting you want to paint. We chose Beach Chairs At Sunset and Friday night.
Each class has a different painting.
You go in and they have a blank canvas, cup with water and the brushes you’ll need, a towel (for wiping brushes) and aprons.
That’s my friend Christina. They provide electric corkscrews. Well I’d never used an electric one and my wine bottle was spinning all over the counter! We drank a bottle of moscato my in-laws gave me for Christmas. I’d been looking for an occasion to pop the cork! SO good. An instructor stands up on a stage in front of the group and paints the same painting you’re painting, step by step. She calls out steps to you. So we started with the middle of the canvas. The sunset.

Let me tell you, that white canvas can be intimidating. That first brush stroke is scary! But then I got over it and moved on. We mixed our own colors so everyone’s oranges and yellows were slightly different. Then we moved on to the beach and the water.
Frankly they should start you out with the hardest parts because by the time we got to the chairs I’d already had 2 glasses of wine! ha!
Next we (THANK GOODNESS) had a stencil for our chairs. 
Can you see the white chalk lines? The chalk brushes off after the painting is dry. As you can see it was a rough stencil- not very detailed. But it helped SO much! Then we filled in the stencil and painted the highlights. 
Here we are with our finished masterpieces! 
We had the best time and can’t wait to go back! It was a great way to get my mind off things. And now we have a painting to go in our beach themed guest bathroom!
Bless Your Heart 
I’ve been to ‘drunk painting’ before! I had never thought of using chalk to outline stuff…brilliant! thanks for the tip 😉
I’m glad you were able to go have fun with a friend on a difficult weekend!
