Spirited Art - Friday, May 11th

On Friday night, May 11th, several of us closed the week out by painting at Spirited Art in Bearden.  At first the idea of painting your own masterpiece can be a little intimidating if you aren't "artsy."  You hear a lot of "doubting" words at first; but as people relax with the process and begin to see their own artwork take shape, you start to hear laughter and see smiles all around.

During the evening we had goodies and wine to keep us going. :)  All together there were about 36 people in the class.  Though most of our whimsical trees were similar, you could definitely see the differences that we each added to our own masterpiece! 

At the end of the night, the owners of Spirited Art donated over $300 to Nuestros Niños.  And I believe that everyone went home happy with their artwork and wondering when the next time we could do it would be!
