Smile #69 - Girls Night Out

Now that my ego thinks I am the new Van Gogh, I decided to spend the evening painting with JB and my sister.  Girls Night Out.  :)

Our class conveniently took place at Mellow Mushroom.  Of course, sis and I took this opportunity to order our favorite pizza - Holyshitake Pie.  It is the best pizza on the menu for mushroom lovers like us.  :)  

Three brushes, a cup of water, a large canvas, and a paint pallet, let's get started!  This time we will be painting the night skyline view of Charlotte.  :) 


Starting with the big round moon in the center of the canvas.  Molly, our instructor, joked that drawing a perfect circle is like trimming your bangs.  It only gets shorter and shorter. LOL!  

The reminding white canvas is painted with black and a hint of blue.  Enhanced with a few stars and the night sky is completed.  


I got a bit too creative by painting my horoscope star sign.  Wasn't the best attempt, but it was worth a try!  


The toughest part comes with painting the buildings and outlining each building.  Famous Charlotte skyscrapers - Duke Energy Building and the Bank of America Corporate Building proudly stood at the center of my canvas followed by smaller buildings.  

Our masterpieces are finished! :)
