Fat Animals

When I'm working at Paint Nite, I'm not always the teacher. Another important part of an event running smoothly is the assistant. I've been an assistant quite a few times now and I enjoy it just as much as teaching. It's a great way to connect with guests at a one on one level. And I get to take a ton of fun pictures! 

If I'm working at an event that is pretty low maintenance, I usually have time to paint a little something in the down time. 

For some reason, both times I've done this so much, I've painted fat animals. Enjoy. 

Archive Post: Bat Painting

I found this little guy in my emails! It's a painting I made for a close friend of mine for a wedding gift. Really happy with the colors in the bat on this one. He just looks so sweet and innocent. Enjoy. 

Upcoming Paint Nite events!

Future Paint Niters,

I have a few more events added to my roster for August and September. Grab a group of friends, pick an event and come paint and party. You can come a few hours early and grab dinner before hand or get apps while painting. Paint Nite is perfect for birthday parties, bachelorette parties and much more! Below is the link to all my scheduled events. 

And don't forget, coupon code: "Kerri" saves you $20 off your tickets! Don't have to use groupon or livingsocial to get a deal ;)

MTG Alter- Mountain

For someone who doesn't play this card game, I sure do a lot of alters on these cards. It's a fun activity to hone some of my detail painting and color matching skills. I also usually do them as a gift to someone. Two birds, one stone :) This one I just extended the illustration past the borders. Enjoy. 

Where my classroom is a bar!

So I've been an artist for Paint Nite since November of 2013. Every day that goes by I am more and more excited and inspired by this job. I've been creating more of my own art as well as improving my skills and learning new techniques. Finally the things I learned in college are paying off! 

This blog will be mostly directed at my personal work but I can't help but share my Paint Nite adventures with everyone! 

Here is the link to my artist's page where potential guests can see my scheduled events and locations. I want to meet as many people as possible and share my love of art with them. Also my love of partying!

I moved to Andover with my boyfriend at the beginning of July. But before I left my old apartment, my previous landlord made my roommates and I a huge dinner. He's a class-act. So I painted something for them. There are two versions, the second I believe might be used as a Paint Nite painting. Stay tuned and stay cool ;)

MTG card alter: Fleecemane Lion

As a homage to one of my new favorite cartoons,. Steven Universe, created by Rebecca Sugar, I altered a Magic the Gathering card called "Fleecemane Lion". It is made to look like Steven's animal companion "Lion", who is a pink lion! Enjoy :)
