Painting in Montgomery Bell State Park with the very best from the court houses of Tennessee

Today I got to spend the afternoon with Crystal Green from Pulaski, TN and several of her court house friends at this beautiful park painting our hearts out~!  These women come from all over Tennessee once a year for a conference.  Last year Crystal invited me to come paint with the women while the men went golfing.  They decided to repeat the party again this afternoon.  Often you hear me comment on how surprised I am when first time painters are so creative.  This group did just that~!  They surprised me~!  And they were so much fun.  Everything from Symphony Brownies to an amazing new Barefoot Wine.  They even wore a fabulous tee shirt they had designed themselves that I meant to get a photo of but somehow forgot.  
Here is a photo of what our view was while painting. I KNOW~!  who couldn't paint looking out this window~? Anybody else want to paint in our beautiful state park?


And here is their fabulous work~!

Donna, It felt like time slowed down as these beautiful women rooted for each other as they tapped into their creative side. The setting is perfect to promote confidence to express individual creativity. Laine
