Painting peacocks at Painting with a Twist with my Austin blog ladies actually happened last Wednesday, January 25th. (remember the PWAT giveaway?)
Dana and Jessica about to get started!
This is where the teacher teaches. They always have a model painting at the front and paint with you step by step. The Bob Ross picture cracks me up!
First step… trace the peacock stencil and painted the background black…
My fancy blue bird! People think you can’t erase paint… but I beg to differ. Black paint covers everything and if it’s wet, it wipes off!
Next, we added tear drop shaped feathers… a little swooping action is all it took.
Tweeting, facebooking…. bloggin’ it up in class.
Everyone tweaked their colors a little. We’re crazy bloggers like that…
Don’t feel like playing that game? OK, I’ll show you…

Great to see such a positive site. I wish I’d had that attitude when I was your age. I probably wouldn’t have so many cracked teeth from worrying. On top of my not so happy attitude, I have MS. I look for positive things to help me and your attitude and cheerfulness was my today “happiness”. I found you on pinterest.com. Have a great time in Florida. I wish you the best.

This looks like so much fun! I looked it up and of course they are way too far from me to go to. Maybe on vacation this year. How cool!

I love the paintings and am so glad you made it to Florida safely! I am sorry I flaked and we never go together before you left! I can't wait to read about your new adventures in the Sunshine state though!!!
