The Palette~

Kelley found the perfect night out for us~ 
We went to a place in downtown Grand Junction
called the Palette!
For $35.00 dollars you can paint a picture~ following 
an artist giving instruction and have a glass of Palisade Wine,
which is a winery near by!  You can purchase more wine as well!
And we did!
They have "Date nights" on Saturday nights where
couples can paint one of the pictures you see hanging on
this wall!
The class was sold out...
there were about 35 of us!
The owner/artist stood here and showed us techniques 
to use to paint our very own Van Gogh's The Starry Night~

The Chalk board calendar on the wall shows up coming
classes~ very clever!
Kelley is ready to start!
I love this girl!
She is so fun and is excited to try new things!
(Anything but get on a cruise ship!!)

They tell you which paints you will need but
they really encourage you to be CREATIVE with color!

Our spots were set up with names when we arrived!

We got right to work!
Kelley took some shots of me working...
I was concentrating so hard!!
Kelley did too!



We signed our work~
Mine is on the left~
Kelley's on the right!

The beautiful artists and their work!


I can't wait to do this again!  I did find out there is a studio
similar  in Cleveland and I hope to try it out!
Thanks so much Kelley for the fun night!
I look forward to seeing my art work in my bedroom
in Grand Junction when I visit next!
When Tegan showed Layla our art work we texted him,
 she gave her Mommy a thumbs up!
One for Meme too!

My daughter Celestial is going to be doing this soon with a friend from work... In Fort Wayne. It sounds totally awesome. Makes me wonder if I could ever do that. Your paintings are awesome!!!
