For my birthday this year my lovely sister got me and her spots to do Paint Nite! It was a fun activity to brush up on our painting skills and paint the night away in a bar. Basically Paint Nite is hosted around different bars in different cities, and people show up for some direction and all of the painting materials. When you go to sign up online, you can see the painting that will be done at each event, so I chose one with wine bottles to hopefully put up over my bar cart.
Everyone’s comes out super different because there isn’t much direction. Our instructor was certainly a free spirit (and funny enough used to be an elementary school art teacher) so she of course just told us ours all looked great and she was hoping we were at least having fun. She would kind of take steps, telling us to do the background first, how to try to position things, and which details to put in, but it was kind of hard to follow along.
I do want to note that the cost of Paint Nite includes the materials for it, but not the booze! So wine/cocktails/beer is all additional.
All in all though, Lisa and I had a great time! Check out what we did below:
