This is a wonderful idea for a night out with friends. And it’s BYOB, which helps with making sure it does not get too expensive. \r

Not all of us have an artsy, craftsy side in us. So when I came in and saw that the canvas was not totally blank, but that the outline was already filled in, I will be honest – I was relieved. And that is a good way to start an evening of 2 to 3 hours of creativity.\r

I prefer not to drink and paint. (yeah right – who am I kidding?) I was worried on what will become of the canvas? But It's a nice adult evening concept for sure. The instructor that we had was young and nice, her name was Alyssa. She is definitely the artist type. There were two people there - one instructor and the other a helper (gets clean water, more paint etc) Both are local artists and that's awesome, although the helper seemed not too much into it, he was a little disinterested at times. Luckily Alyssa runs around a lot, so when you need help, you can just ask for it and they will get you on the right track again. \r

At the end of the night, though, I had a pretty darn good painting and one that I was pretty proud of.
