Full Circle at Pinot’s Palette: From First Cup to First Friday

In 2022, I dipped my first brush into a go-home paint kit from Pinot’s Palette. I still remember that clear plastic cup—splattered with dried paint, sitting beside my first palette of colors. It was just for fun, a cozy escape into creativity. That little kit became my gateway to something bigger.

Since then, Pinot’s has become my go-to place. I’ve painted owls in masks, moonlit dragonflies, lakeside landscapes, and whimsical pumpkins. I’ve watched strangers become friends over shared palettes and laughter. Each canvas has carried a story—some bold, some tender, all joyful.

Now, in April 2026, I get to join Pinot’s Palette for First Friday. It feels like a full-circle moment. From solo painting at home to standing beside fellow artists, sharing smiles and brushstrokes in the studio that started it all.

These snapshots—of moonlit skies, masked owls, coastal scenes, and cocktail blooms—are more than paintings. They’re pieces of a journey. A celebration of community, color, and the magic of showing up with a brush in hand and an open heart.

I can’t wait to share this next chapter with you.
