What a great idea this is. I'm jealous that I didn't think of it myself! Canvas and Cocktails is an art studio that hosts painting classes that teach you how to paint with acrylics. No pressure here, just fun and creativity!
You just go to canvasandcocktails.com and look at the calendar to decide which painting you like, register, and show up! The approx $40 registration fee includes your seat, canvas, paint, brushes, apron and instructor. The best part? You can (and are encouraged to) bring your own cocktail to enjoy while painting! How much more relaxing and liberating can you get?! I haven't personally tried this out yet but I fully intend to ASAP!
