Summary
Description
Join us to create your own fabulous fall themed work of art - a beautiful birch tree, fall leaves and bird scene with a rustic twist. This is not your ordinary paint and sip! We'll be painting on weathered wood which is uniquely flawed, making it one of a kind - from the piece of wood that you are working with to the beautiful painting that you'll create. No experience required; step by step instruction will be given.
Expect chips, splits, rough surfaces, and other charming rugged character that will make your painting a truly unique piece of art that everyone can appreciate. The colors of the weathered wood will vary between browns and grays, often with a mixture of both and in varying shades. The size varies, but is approximately 6" x 10".
Come yourself, bring a date or bring a friend. Ages 16 and up are welcome. Space is limited so reserve your spot now!
**Participants are welcome to BYOB which includes alcohol and non-alcoholic drinks. You must be at least 21 to consume alcohol and proper ID is required. Please arrive 15 - 20 minutes early to park, sign-in, mingle and be ready to go! We will meet in the Classroom located in the Red Barn.
About the artist: Beth Slagle is a self-taught photographer as well as painter and likes to explore different paint mediums, with an emphasis on watercolor and acrylic. Nature plays a large role in her artwork, and with each photo or painting, She thinks of it as telling a story. The creative process brings her a level of peace which she can lose herself in for hours. For a number of years, she has also been teaching painting and loves helping and inspiring others to pursue their creative journey. She's taught hundreds of students ranging in age from 5 to 85 and seeing the enthusiasm and joy in their eyes while they "create" is art in itself.
Art in one form or another has always been a part of my life and it has been influenced by my passion for travel, adventure, photography and painting. I see beauty everywhere and in the most mundane things whether it's a ripple on water or wrinkles on a face.
