A feather duster goes swimming

For months I had been watching the calendar at Austin’s Painting With A Twist, trying to find a time when I could take one of their classes. I finally found one: Van Gogh’s Tree.

Blue skies, smiling at me .....

The premise behind Painting With A Twist is that it’s a fun, social event where all the supplies are provided. They provide the space, instructor, apron, paint, canvas, brushes, everything! (It is not, however, an art school.)

Blue, lots of blue

With two brushes, seven paint colors, a couple of paper plates and a few paper towels, we got down to the business of fun painting.

I walked in with a purse and two hours later I walked out with a purse and a painting.

Now that’s my kind of art.

I thought I had some orange in that tree, lots of orange, but it doesn’t look like it now.
