Paint Party

Back in the day if you mentioned a "painting party", that meant getting a few friends to come over and help paint something in your home or apartment (walls, doors, and trim). The "new" painting parties are becoming very popular, but instead of helping a friend or sibling paint walls, you actually paint a painting of your own; basically unleashing your inner Georgia O'Keefe!

Tonight I hosted a paint night run by my neighbor, Lauren Carlo. She is a very multi talented recent college grad who majored in Art and English Literature. Lauren took a group of mostly non painters and turned us loose on channeling our creative juices to produce  our final product of a fall scene.  In a matter of a couple of hours we went from blank canvas to our own personal "work of art"! Magic....

BSoleille! The bright side of "exactly different" in all 10 paintings!  Fun!
