Painting With My Community Peeps

My Community Group decided it would be fun to do a paint night together.  We picked the Inwood Theatre pic.  This experience was different from the last one, different instructor and different style.  But definitely just as fun.
Here we are with our blank canvases...

 First we drew the building in with a pencil.


Then painted the sky...


Added in the red...


The different shade of red...


Both of these colors were difficult to make.  I wanted it to be more of a terra-cotta color... didn't quite accomplish that.  And then the pink was more of a lavender.


Here is a great action shot :)


Trees are added as well as the yellow, blue, and white...


And then we outlined the whole pic in black.  That was not as easy as it looks.


And the whole group with our finished products.  


 This whole painting deal is fun.  A little pricey to get to do very often AND I am not sure the perfectionist side of me can handle it.  Right now both of my paintings are just sitting in my room and I end up picking apart all the things I would do differently.
But a fun night with my peeps for sure!
