My Future as an Artist

I'm not sure that I will ever make a living as a painter, but I sure had fun on Saturday night!


One of the girls that I used to do Baby Boot Camp with invited me to a fun girls' night out on Saturday to paint my first masterpiece! We went to Painting with a Twist where we learned how to copy Monet's Wild Poppies.



We really had a great time with a bunch of girls, some yummy food and a lot of paint!

Erin, our hostess, made this beautiful cake that had the painting that we almost picked to paint. She also made our aprons! She is amazing!



I'm not even going to show you the original Monet painting that these are supposed to look like. I prefer to think that we all created new interpretations of the original!

I love it. I think it looks great. A Mandy Boyd masterpiece - every bit as prostegious as Monet. :)
