The girls and I decided it was time for a much needed painting outing.

I'm happy to say I'm back to participating in ladies' painting night after taking some time out due to wedding planning. I figured it was time to share since my last Palettes and Pairings post was over a year and a half ago. My most recent painting was done by black light with neon paints. They call it Van Glow and our inspiration painting was Starry Night. The two pictures on the left were taken in the studio with the black lights. The third picture is the painting in normal light. Clearly, it is way cooler in black light just like the whole experience.

I think my girlfriends and I enjoy our local paint and sip studio, Palettes & Pairings, way too much.

Have you heard about the sip and paint classes that seem to be popping up all over the place?  After seeing articles about them all over, I finally attended my first class in April at Palettes and Pairings in Kirkland and loved it.  I was initially really nervous about going because I haven't painted anything since junior high, but my painting turned out great!
