Coloring outside the lines is exciting, but learning how to color inside the lines can be just as fun — especially when there’s booze.
Wine and canvas will be the theme at the Princeville Fish Eye Gallery on 5 to 7 p.m. Saturday as the business hosts is second “Paint and Pupus.”
Artist Richard Whitman will be giving lessons.
“Last year we had people from all over — from Kekaha all the way to Princeville where the gallery is located,” said owner Tom Green. “We had a max of 10 people last year and we were maxed out.”
This year, the event has been structured to accommodate about 15 people. It’s for everyone interested in learning a little something new and unwinding at the same time.
“We could probably do more depending on how many people sign up,” Green said.
The evening costs $40, and that includes canvas, paint and brushes, snacks and alcohol.
“Last year we had some cookies, and we made some homemade stuff. Then I went and bought wine and beer and water for everyone,” Green said.
He started Paint and Pupus as a way to promote local artists and connect them with the community.
“The whole idea behind my gallery was to help local artists in sales, but also use the gallery itself for events and promotions for their works or a special unveiling of a piece,” he said.
Students who attend the Paint and Pupus are given a stack of photos, taken by Green, to use as inspiration. Students can choose one photo, or a conglomeration of a few, to replicate on their own canvas.
“Richard goes around and gives advice on coloring and different techniques,” Green said.
