What is Paint Club?

Paint Club is a fun way to connect with friends and a safe way to get out of the house during this time of social distancing. It is proven that getting creative releases endorphins, it's a little boost of pleasure, resulting in a feeling of well-being.



We meet once a week at the Blue Heaven Studio for three hours of painting and socializing. We all wear masks and stay 6 ft away from each other. We all work on the same project taught by a professional artist who takes us through step by step from blank canvas to a work of art. Some projects are completed in one session, others are completed over several weeks. No set schedule dictates how slowly or quickly we complete the project. It's a very relaxed way to learn how to paint.



The Paint Club is best enjoyed with a drink in hand, so we take turns bringing a bottle and snacks.


The photos in this post are projects we have been working on recently. I've learned so much about paining over the last year, our instructor Dee Catallo is fabulous!

Working From Home....

When I occasionally worked from home (before Covid-19), I ended up propped in bed with my lap desk, relaxing and working in pajamas. This worked when I was working from home for one or two days, I've now been working from home just short of 4 months. I've had to get out of the bedroom and get dressed. My new workday look doesn't need a formal work outfit, just no pajamas.  These are my must haves for a workday at home.... 


Cheers!
