Paint A Grand Scene At The Grand View

Bowen artists get your pastels and paint brushes set, on the last Tuesday of every month local artist Mel Stone has been hosting Paint And Sip sessions at The Grandview Hotel.

The next tipsy painting gathering is set for March 29, and it’s your opportunity for a no judgement artistic journey helped by some red or white wine.

If you’ve been out of the loop, Paint and Sip is a relaxing, fun way to step into painting, where a resident artist takes participants step-by-step through painting a picture, portrait or otherwise.

With an easel, paint brush and a creative juice -preferably wine, although it can be coffee, tea, or beer – you can enjoy a no-pressure painting experience, with no painting experience required.

Last Month’s session was a grand success at the Grandview, with the wannabe artists showing their teacher their very best interpretation of shuttered blue window with plants below.

New and novice artists alike can find out more by contacting the Grand View Hotel.

25 seats are available for the sessions, which run $45 per person, and they’re a guaranteed blast – you might even discover a new talent.

Bookings are essential, so call the Grand View Hotel on (07) 4786 4022 to secure a seat for the next go around.
