Cheri's Girl's Night
Many of the ladies at this party were mom's of little one's ready to enjoy a brief moment of relaxation and creativity. All of us were able to laugh at and relate to some of the stories these young mom's had to tell. We all enjoyed a quiet evening painting a bright red flower. Cheri and I had a great time planning the party and it was so fun getting to know some of her friends and family. Thank you Cheri for a relaxing evening at Viking Vineyards! #paintingparties #paintingpa

Having a painting party for a birthday event with Bumble Bree Art means we can paint whatever our guest o


Pumpkins at North End Market
One of my favorite locations to teach at is North End Market. Artist support Jennifer shared a festive fall night with me, as we painted pumpkins. I love that Elaine prepares assigned seats, delectable treats and has a staff ready to talk wine. It was impressive to see the oranges come alive as our little painters sipped and chatted. Fall colors get me in the mood for rich food. The culinary crew at North End had my stomach growling right when I walked in - it smelled am


Paint and Plank
Kelci and Bree from Bumble Bree Art joined teams with Heidi Bogue of Crossfit HighGear for a "Paint and Plank" event. We started off the evening by getting pumped up with a Crossfit workout, mellowed out with a yoga class, then transitioned into our painting portion. Our refreshments for the evening were quite nutritious and served at the Pit Stop Cafe at Crossfit HighGear. It was the kind of party that appeals to all the senses. Endorphins were high, relaxation was infused a
