Ahem. Sunday the awkward turtle gang (oh yes I just did) went to Painting with a Twist, where they gave 50% of their profits for the evening to the National Dating Abuse Helpline where Kristin works as a Development Officer, doing things that matter (shoutout! LOL!).
Here's what David the Instructor aka "Your Greatness" aka "Oh Wise One" (ladies, he may be single. You should totally check him out if you're into the whole inflated titles thing) guided the class of 30+ people to paint: an Austin skyline:
Lame. No offense, but really, who picked out that color scheme? When I think Austin downtown, the colors of wimpy yellow and sickly diaper brown/caramel don't come to mind. And clear blue water = Town Lake? Ah, no. Time to improvise.
And the winner is: Amy's stellar monochromatic skyline. She is so talented!!!
And the Defiant Child Award goes to Yours Truly. What do you MEAN there is no Capitol in the skyline? I'll fix yer wagon and make it as big as the Frost Building. Dang hippies. And add a sailboat, too, while we're at it.
Shockingly, Amy and I were the only two people who didn't follow Wise One's teachings. Judge accordingly.
Rock on.
Oh I think they are both fantastic. You should hang it in your office and when people comment tell them you bought it at a silent auction.
ReplyDeleteThat is a good idea... You could also raffle it off. I am sure someone would pay big bucks for that. Proceeds can go to a chocolate drawer at the office.
