Wine And Palette

I have discovered the best activity in the whole wide world. Painting, with a friend, while drinking wine. The name of the company is "Wine and Palette" I have been "painting" for several months now. I have had so much fun at these events, that I wanted to share with you. Be prepared to be amazed and/or horrified!

We began painting on November 5, 2011.  The title of this is "Sugar Skull".  We were at Boleros downtown.  My excuse for the way this painting turned out is simple.  I had just had my eye surgery and couldn't see well.  (That is my story and I am sticking to it!).  Everyone needs a skull with earrings...right? This is hanging in the garage.  Every time I pull in, it makes me laugh.

Next came "Tree of Dreams" on December 8, 2011.

We went to Kamps, midtown.  This one turned out not bad.  Again, I need to stress that I  do not attend these because of my artistic talent.  They are so much fun.

Cherry Blossom Bliss was done on January 11, 2012.  What a way to bring in the new year.

This was done at a restaurant on the Curve.  They have awesome Apple drinks.  Beware, you can not tell there is any alcohol in them at all!  Maybe, that is why my blossoms look so weird.

Peacock Feathers was done on February 6, 2012 at Mama Roja's.  This painting may actually be framed and hung inside the house.  I love peacocks anyway and this reminds me of picking up the feathers when I was growing up.  We had a pet peacock, named Petey.  I was so original with naming him.

The next one is titled "The Giving Tree" and was done on February 16, 2012.  I have renamed mine.  It is now titled "The Claw coming out of the ground for you".  Appropriate, don't you think?

"Waves of Color" was done on February 25, 2012.  I am still trying to figure out how to put a sail boat on this.  We were at Bolero's again.  Love that place.

"Where the Red Tree Grows" was done on March 6, 2012.  We were at Tony's Island Grill in Mustang.  It was an adventure getting there, but well worth it.  Food was great and, as always, the evening was awesome.

"Flowers in the Rain" was done on March 12, 2012.  Know how you do something that is so horribly bad that you are both embarrassed and tickled?  This is it.  This is so bad it won't even be hung in garage.  It will probably be decorating big blue trash can very soon.

The best part of this who piece is my signature, which is barely visible on the picture.

It is almost time to schedule my painting for the month of April.  I can't wait!! 

Come on guys, sign up and have a good time with friends.  Who cares if you can't draw a straight line?  It is about having fun!
