Once you arrive, you will choose – with a cocktail already in hand – one of my many prints and use it as a guideline as you create your own version. You will use the very same paint tubes and brushes I paint with and come away with a fun experience and your very own original piece. We’ll enjoy music, snacks and more cocktails. No experience needed and all materials are included. Each session is limited to 6 people. Please contact me with any questions. See photos from previous events here and here.

What you’ll get:

  • Three-hour painting party
  • Unlimited cocktails
  • Fun experience and your very own original piece to take home

APRIL – SOLD OUT! Register for MAY 4 below.


Upcoming Sessions




Sales end Thursday before each event.

Questions & Answers

Where is this event taking place and what’s the parking situation?
The event is hosted in my home in Reston, Virginia. The address, directions and parking instructions will be provided in your registration email.

What should I wear?
Aprons are provided but please wear suitable clothing as acrylic paint doesn’t go away in the washer. It easily come off your hands though. 

What techniques will I learn?
This is a fun event and not an art class where you will be taught techniques per say. It’s a time to relax, have fun being creative while you enjoy yummy drinks, and meet new people. I will guide you through the class and everyone will have a finished painting at the end of the 3-hour session. 

Can I purchase your prints or paintings at the event? 
Yes, prints and original art are available for sale. I’ll be happy to show you all my art and what I’m currently working on in the studio. You’ll receive 20% off all prints during the event.

What’s the cancellation policy? 
Classes may be cancelled Thursday before the upcoming event if less than four have registered, or if inclement weather us expected on the day of the event. Full refund will be issued. 

What is the refund policy?
Refunds are available up to three days before the event.

A few love notes: 

“I had a wonderful time! I’m happy with the way my painting turned out and I’ve gotten lots of compliments on it. I enjoyed the creative outlet, doing something I don’t normally do, seeing all your artwork and relaxing with a lovely, fruity cocktail. I had so much fun!” – S.S. 

“I had a BALL! I strongly recommend taking advantage of one of these events. This was my first time painting and I learned so much during the three hours, and I plan to return with a friend next time.Erica is a great host and teacher!” – A.H.

“I did this event and I highly recommend it. Both exciting and relaxing at one time. I created a lovely painting, while giggling with the Girls and sipping a Mimosa. Am definitely doing this again!!” – C.H.

“I had such a great time! I brought my bff as a belated bday present. We each have 3 kids and don’t get much time to ourselves. It was so great to have a creative outlet, benefit from Erica’s guidance in a low-pressure environment, enjoy the company, slurp on a fruity cocktail, and come away with a piece of art I was able to hang in my house! I pass by it every day and it fills me with joy! Thanks so much! I’ll probably sign up again and am definitely recommending to others.” – F.D. of Virginia

 

Looking forward to painting with you!

I had such a great time! I brought my bff as a belated bday present. We each have 3 kids and don't get much time to ourselves. It was so great to have a creative outlet, benefit from Erica's guidance in a low-pressure environment, enjoy the company, slurp on a fruity cocktail, and come away with a piece of art I was able to hang in my house! I pass by it every day and it fills me with joy! Thanks so much! I'll probably sign up again and am definitely recommending to others.
