This last Friday night my hubby was working late. I didn't want to go OUT out, but wanted to do something other than become a couch potato ( which was very tempting after a long day of Real Estate! ) But I opted to head over to Brenham to attend a Sip and Paint class at the new studio on Alamo Street.
I had THE BEST time. I really didn't have a clue how to paint a beach scene....but the engaging instructor helped me (and 7 of my new friends!) put brush to paint to palette to create an adorable scene the studio calls Corona Beach.
When I got there and checked in I picked a spot at the tables where easels, paint brushes, water, and a painting aprons were just waiting for each of us who had made reservations - there was also room for walk ins.
Right now the studio is set up as a BYOB so I brought a little bottle of my own favorite wine to enjoy.
From the first brush stroke to the finished product with the step by step instruction there were lots of laughs and time flew. A couple of hours later we were all holding our own renditions of the painting and everyone was happy.
This is a great place to bring friends and family for a fun night or possibly for a celebration ( anniversary, birthday, shower ), and I would think for team building functions for businesses. I had a great time and will go back.
I guess I do have a little artistic side after all! Thanks Palettes and Pairings TEXAS! read more
