Meg’s birthday is today, but this weekend her boyfriend surprised her by setting up a surprise party for her! We gathered in downtown Indy at “Mimosa and a Masterpiece” to surprise Meg and then have a painting party. She was definitely surprised when we all popped up from behind the canvas and screamed “SURPRISE”, and then was immediately presented with the tough choice of choosing what our group would paint.
These things make me a little nervous, because I’m painting a set picture, so I can’t really fudge on things. But, with someone guiding the way a bit, I also learned some fun things along the way. Meg chose a tree in a grassy field to paint, which I was a fan of! I’ll let the pictures do the talking:
Lots of space to fill
The grass was my favorite thing to use, as we used sea sponge type of things to get a great texture.

And here’s my finished painting. We had the option to do whatever color of leaves or blossoms that we wanted, so I chose pink for cherry blossoms, since I love them oh so much 🙂 So, I’m clearly not an artist… AT ALL, but I had a great time painting with friends and celebrating Meg’s birthday!
With all the extra hours of work every week that I’ve had this semester, it was really nice to have a fun evening out.
Now it’s your turn to share! Have you ever gone to a painting party before? What’s one activity that you aren’t very good at but you find relaxing or therapeutic?
Your painting turned out so cute! You have to hang it somewhere! I’m doing one of these classes next week with a friend. We are all bridesmaids in her wedding and we thought it would be a great group bonding thing! I’m excited.
This was so much fun!!!! One of the better birthday celebrations, so glad you were part of it’ ❤️
I’m so glad you enjoyed it, and I loved being part of it 🙂
