Class: Paint Your Partner – February 2026
February is the month for Valentines, Galentines and Palentines! Celebrate love and friendship with a unique and playful watercolor painting class where you are the artist and your partner is the model (and vice versa). Whether you’re bringing a friend, favorite pal or significant other, this lighthearted experience is all about creativity, laughter, and connection. We’ll also celebrate with champagne (non-alcoholic drinks also provided), strawberries and chocolate.
Along the way Missy will share watercolor and mark making techniques, painting tips and color theory. There is a $15 supply fee which includes the use of professional watercolor paints, watercolor pencils, paper, brushes, a glass of champagne (or non-alcoholic drink), strawberries and chocolate. This class is about using the process of painting as a playful and connecting experience removing the stress of having to create a product. No watercolor experience is necessary.
