Prepping for Cocktails & Canvases Nov. 4, 2013

I hosted another monthly Cocktails & Canvases this past Sunday. We had such a blast I totally forgot to take “in-progress” photos! Thanks to the Fall time change I got an extra hour in the morning and printed up a storm in my studio before getting everything ready for the students. Casey always helps me a little, making sure the kitchen and powder-room are in order.

Setting up the paint tubes before Cocktails & Canvases, Nov. 4, 2013

Casey headed to watch the Redskin’s game and I started my Spotify “Cocktails & Canvases” playlist and rocked out while sorting paint tubes.  It helps me and the students to see all the color variations.

Students from Cocktails & Canvases, Nov. 4, 2013

And here they are! My fine students who did such a fantastic job! There’s some slight glare from the flash I had to use because the sun was going down.  We laughed, we talked and we sang-a-long to the music.  They were all so sweet and showered me with compliments. I felt so honored to help them finished their pieces.

Next event is December 7! You can register here.

Some bonds never really leave us.
They simply find new ways to stay close.
