Artist/Thesis Statement

Recently, paint bars have been getting increasingly popular. These events are open to everyone, regardless of experience. Same is true at Brush It off. Everyone is welcome to join us; alone, in a group, experience or not. We focus on releasing stress and worries in a guided way.

Brush It off is a creative studio that prompts you to throw away your worries and take a creative break from your everyday stresses. Go to our website to sign up, join us in the studio, and create. At the beginning of each event there is a food and drink menu available to really have a relaxed and enjoyable time. Everyone will get a canvas on an easel, paints and brushes which will be set up for them upon arrival. Once the event begins, the instructor will start by giving the class a prompt. Each person will then paint their response directly onto their canvas, each being unique to the person. Once that step is complete, the instructor will then provide step by step instructions on how to create the painting of the night. You leave the event having completed the action of “brushing off” stresses in your life, as well as leaving with a physical representation of growth and progression.
