Friday after work, I met up with my friend Rachel and her sister Amy for a girl's night.
A while ago we had bought a deal off of livingsocial for Gogh Paint-n-Party and we were so excited to try out this class. None of us had been to one of these parties before.
How it works is there is a painting that everyone in the class tries to mimic a certain painting. I knew right away that I wanted to make more unique, so I changed up the colors. I really love the way red and blue look together and that it what I decided to go with.
It was cool to see how each of our paintings ended up different. We each added our personal touch and preference. I think we did pretty good if I do say so myself :)
It's probably been about 3 years since I have painted. I had forgotten how much I love to paint. It is one of those hobbies where I can truly forget about any stress or worry that I might have and fully concentrate on the task at hand. Painting is so relaxing and also very rewarding. I just love the feeling I get when I finish and see what I have accomplished; a unique, one of a kind creation.
I think I need to start painting again.

wow they all turned out so pretty! Very impressive :D what a fun girl's night idea too.
I love your painting! I have never heard of those clases, but I'll have to look into them. How fun! Maybe I need to plan a girls night at my house with some blank canvas', paints and lots of tarps :)
That sounds like such a fun idea. All your pictures came out great. There's some talent there in you ladies!
