The Party Studio - Autumn Walk

Sunday night, my friend Kim and I hit up The Party Studio to paint and share some wine.

Cupcake Red Velvet pairs well with a fall painting.

As usual, the instructing artist led us through step by step.  So easy!   I went rogue with mixing my own colors again.     I think for simplicity's sake, they don't make you mix the colors too much.    You can do whatever you want, though, so I sit there and swirl all my paint together.  A couple other women did an entirely different painting.

at about the halfway point   

For extra fun, they had GLITTER available that you could add to your painting.  I'm pretty sure Van Gogh was into glitter.  No?  Well, whatever, I put some black glitter on a couple of the tree trunks.  

a touch of class

It gives it that fine art vibe.  I seriously love it and now I'm struggling with a strong desire to add sparkle to all of my paintings.  

Voila!  Here's the finished product on our mantel.   I'm liking it up there for fall.  Must cling to every last bit of fall before Winter starts.
