Pinot & Picasso

The Book Club (ie. me, Tina, and Becca-we even wore our t-shirts ...) went to this cool place downtown called Pinot & Picasso (www.pinotandpicasso.com). You go for 2 or 3 hours and are walked through doing a painting.
We chose Starry, Starry Night by Van Gogh, which as it turns out, was a daunting task! It was a lot of fun though, but amazing how different everyone's takes and styles were.
Since it was a Saturday afternoon, we drank sparkling grape juice instead of wine. Then, you get to take the painting home and hang it on your wall!
Being completely unartistic, this was a great feat for me to paint something. If I can do it, anyone can! Would highly recommend this fun little experience.

OK, I'm obviously starting at the top and working my way down your blog. I forgot that you guys did "Starry Night." I want to see a closeup of how the three of yours turned out!! And this may very well be the one I want to do next - I love this painting!
