Welcome, Ari!
Welcoming A New Artist, Ari!
I’m a down-to-earth, bright, creative cosmetologist and crafter. I discovered my love of sewing at the age of 8, continued onto woodworking, scrapbooking, beading, and took an interest in art/drawing/painting on and off since elementary school. At the age of 27, I attended my first sip and paint class and discovered how much I missed painting and I was more talented now than I was in my younger years. I enjoyed it more than I remembered and wanted to continue painting every possible chance I had. When I got married in 2020 and moved to Coeur d’Alene to live with my husband, he encouraged me to continue painting, he could see that it brought me out of deep depression. I found out about Pinot’s Palette through my boss and attended my first class here in October 2021. I was told about an open position the first and second time I came in for a class and decided to apply. Painting is my therapy, and it fills me with a joy I didn’t realize I was missing in my life.
Welcome on board, Ari, we're happy to have you! Also as a fortunate coincidence, it's Ariel's birthday today so Happy Birthday!
