“Art is the only serious thing in the world. And the artist is the only person who is never serious."
~ Oscar Wilde ~
Kelly was our hostess for the February Women Who Wine event. She arranged a private painting class at
Brush N Bottle, located in the North Campbell Plaza on Prince Road and Campbell in Tucson. Since our group is Women Who Wine, the painting subject was, surprise! A wine glass!
Eleven ladies were attended the class and brought our favorite refreshment (wine!) and appetizers. Paint, canvas and brushes were provided, as an experienced and enthusiastic local artist lead the group step by step in recreating the featured artwork. At the end of the evening, the ladies took their masterpieces home.
To commemorate the event, Kelly surprised everyone with a lovely wineglass etched with the following "Women Who Wine Established November 21, 2013". Originally filled with Valentine's Day colored M&M's, both chocolate and peanut, you can see how long THAT lasted!
