A while back, I bought discounted vouchers at Costco for painting classes held at Palettes and Pairings<\/a> I was looking forward to my first canvas painting! Imagine hanging your masterpiece at home!!??<\/p>\n

Finally, found a nice painting I’m interested in and signed up for it \ud83d\ude42 The best thing is.. YS and Jo joined in for the class too! It was fun to paint together.. hahaha.. The voucher includes painting materials + a drink and light snacks. It was quite worth it – can’t think of a better way to spent Saturday night! <\/p>\n

Yes… my oversized space needle.. Bh thinks that it looks like a UFO invading Seattle. hahaha… There’s always a first time right?<\/p>\n

It’s only a small painting but it’s quite tiring to focus and paint. Now I can imagine how Michelangelo felt when he painted Sistine Chapel’s ceiling?!!<\/p>\n

I was abit disappointed that the instructor did not teach us any painting technique – she just told us what colours to mix and paint on the canvas :\/ hmmm.. well.. she did teach us how to draw the space needle\/ferris wheel but it would be good if she provided some tips on merging the paints<\/p>\n

Then again, I will go again (hope for a better instructor) as i think it’s therapeutic to paint.. love it when I see the final product! \ud83d\ude00 It’s also a good activity to do together with your date\/girlfriends! In the mean time… Let me enjoy my masterpiece..hehe<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
