What It Means To Do Paint And Drink Jersey Shore Style

By Diane McDonald


Having a fun night out, for many people on the Jersey Shore, means traipsing from bar to bar and having to take a cab or hitch a ride home. There are also many people who are, more and more, taking advantage of a fun and creative evening out that still has drinking involved. This is accomplished by visiting one of the bars, taverns or other establishments that offers a class dealing with a class for fun paint and drink Jersey Shore homeowners have a ball at.

Many of the same taverns, bars, and pubs will be the locations of these parties, so it will be fairly easy to find one. These classes run about two or three hours, so it is not a big piece of your night out and it could be the least expensive time you have spent away from home. It also will be the most creative.

You will see posters that are hanging on the walls of your favorite watering hole. These will indicate the presence of these classes and when and at what time. You might be able to notice a particular pattern of these parties. You will see they may be thrown on similar days each week or month. Many people schedule their month this way in order to show off to friends and neighbors what they have found just right down the street from their neighborhood.

Another important item might also be on the poster. This will be the availability of wines. The various selections may be included as well as the availability of any other harder drinks. You may also see a notice about soda and or beer in lieu of spirits.

A little insight into what will happen will help you understand something that many people fear, at first. This is because they can be shown and instructed in doing something they might not have even thought about doing. They may never have had to paint anything other than a wall before.

Everyone is painting the same image. This image may be surrealistic. It could be a high tone image, such as portraiture. It could be a scene from just around the corner or one that is visited in another country. It could be a dark representation of what the local artist, who will be hosting the evening, thinks about the world as well.

The classes are all conducted much the same. The attendees will filter in and find their easel. The canvass might already be placed on the rail. The drinks will be made available on a side table and brushes, paint, scrapers as well as cloths and other tools will be passed out. The artist will display the image to be worked on and discuss various intricacies with it.

The artist for the evening will show the image they have already painted, showing the members of the room what they did and how they did some things. The class will learn a slightly different brush stroke, new method of mixing paint or new way of seeing what is there. The professionals, who make their living by painting, will help those who need help so everyone can create something they would be able to hang up at home.
