Picasso—Eat Your Heart Out

AWNY women at a Paint and Sip on the Upper West Side.

Have we discovered the next Picasso, Degas, or Monet?

We jest of course! That said, a group of nine Aussie women met to try their hands (and paintbrushes) at a Paint and Sip night on the Upper West side in April.

Swishing and splatting on canvas.

They swished, splatted, dabbed, and dotted their way to some of the works you see in the post.

Some (like yours truly) even tried their hand at overcoming their perfectionist tenancies.

Not half bad. Some lovely works by the Aussie ladies in attendance.

The night was grand, and I have it on good authority that a glass of Prosecco helped calm the “beginner artist” nerves in the room.

Yours truly, trying her hand at overcoming perfectionism.

The paint and sip night was hosted at The Paint Place, on West 72nd Street.
