Sips n Strokes

So, there is this painting place called Sips n Strokes. You go, take your favorite beverage, grab a canvas and paint at location, then they show you step by step how to paint a picture (you pick the date you go based upon the picture they are doing that day). Depending on the picture, they will outline it for you - beware if it's not outlined it makes it harder. They tell you how much "scoops" of which colors to mix, which brush to use and which brush stroke to do. It's really great. It is definitely more of a social outing than an art class. But at the end of the night, you take your beautiful or not so beautiful painting home and decide whether or not you should actually hang it on the wall or place it in the corner of a closet.

Here are pictures of my "artwork".



I guess they're not that shabby, but thank God there was someone telling me what to do step by step!
