Painting With Wine
In two art classes we have had sessions where we painted with wine. That's correct! Wine! In this case it was a nice red zinfandel. Students were provided templates of the bottle and glasses so they did not worry about the accuracy of drawing the bottle and glasses.Then we layered with wine washes. Other colors were then added.
This makes a very attractive painting although I did need to darken via Photoshop since the wine was not vivid enough. It's a fun class to do and it is always well-attended.
By the way, we drank the wine after while critiquing our work. Ink, wine and watercolor.

Very nice, we did this once too, lots of fun!
Sounds like a class after my own heart!
Great painting and better when you can drink it too.
You can also paint with coffee too - black of course :)
Wow...That looks great. I wouldn’t have thought it possible. It was nice going through it. keep it up the good work.
What a fun idea Terry - I'm going to forward this along to our cultural centre. The "Art & Wine" events are always popular, but I think I'd enjoy this even more. I especially like the idea of handing out templates.
ps - love the name on the wine label :-)
Thanks for all of your comments. Jeanette--coffee is fun too. Krista--you know the fun. Christy--I know you will do fine when you do this exercise.
