Hello and thank you for visiting my website! My name is Sarah Barnes. I am a local artist and I would love to share my passion for painting with you at a Paint & Sip. It can be one of my ongoing public Paint & Sip events that I have each month at several different local venues, or you can have your own private Paint & Sip event at your designated venue.

How private events work:

I love doing private parties! All we need to start the is the date, time and expected number of attendees. I work with many venues that you can choose from to have your party or it can be in your home. I supply everything needed to paint.

The cost is $25 per person and if you have 10 or more guests you paint FREE!

I prefer cash or check for payment. I would like a final count for party 48 hrs in advance, (some venues may require advanced payment or number of quests sooner).

At this time I don’t require a deposit. If you should need to cancel, I would like you to book another date. A private party is a great way just to get together with friends or celebrate a special occasion. I work with you to make your party a great memory!

SPEND A NIGHT SHARING LAUGHS AND WINE WITH YOUR FRIENDS, WHILE CREATING YOUR BEAUTIFUL WORK OF ART!

Paint & Sip parties are fun and meant for beginners and experienced painters! I will guide you step by step through the process of completing a painting you can be proud of. All materials are provided and everything is all set for you to relax, paint and sip!

How it works:

1. Each Paint & Sip features a different painting at a variety of venues. A few of the venues I have worked with are: L-May, Courtside, Los Aztecas, hotel meeting rooms, and more.  Sometimes I offer a choice of painting.

2. View the monthly schedule and pick out the the painting you want to paint and register online.

3. Come on your own or bring a friend or two — everything else is provided!
