Pass-the-Canvas Sip and Paint

Suggested by Kali W.

Sip and paint at home. Each start a canvas, then swap every ten minutes and keep going.

Set up a little painting night at home: a couple of small canvases, brushes and paints, and a drink each. Wine, a cocktail, a mocktail, juice or bubbly water all work, or surprise each other by picking the other person's drink. Each start a painting, then every ten minutes or so, swap canvases and keep going on the other person's. Take a photo before every swap so you can see how each painting changed hands. Start with a photo of the two of you clinking glasses, and end with both finished paintings side by side.

More about this mission

Paint-and-sip studios got popular in the 2010s, but swapping canvases makes the home version even better. Neither painting turns out how anyone planned, and that's the fun.

Tips: acrylic paint dries fast and cleans up with water, small canvases or canvas boards are cheap at craft stores, and a paper plate makes a great palette. Put down newspaper or an old sheet first.
