Dear Creative Diary… I Facilitated a Room Full of Giggling Women Painting a Nearly Naked Man and I Have No Regrets
Here’s the thing:
I didn’t paint.
I poured wine, queued up the playlist, and gently encouraged a man named Ryan Redwood to take off his apron—purely for creative purposes, of course.
Paint Misbehavin’ is not your average paint night.
It’s fun. It’s bold. It’s a little scandalous.
But it’s also safe, guided, and surprisingly joyful.
It’s not an art class. It’s a creative adventure—with a hot model, a little wine, and a LOT of laughter.
Sue from ADK Creative Works leads every step. You’re not just thrown an easel and expected to “wing it.”
No artistic skill required. Just the ability to follow directions and maybe breathe through the occasional swoon.
At one point, a few women literally covered their eyes and giggled—not because they were embarrassed, but because it was so unexpected and light and honestly, just plain fun.
There’s a moment where everyone forgets to worry about being good at painting—because they’re too busy being fully present and having a damn good time.
You’ll leave with:
- A painting you might hang in the living room. You will definitely show your best friend.
- A story
- And the reminder that creativity is allowed to be weird, flirty, and fully yours.

So if you’ve been curious, but afraid you “can’t paint” or “might blush too hard”—trust me.
You’ll be led. You’ll laugh. You’ll surprise yourself.
That’s the whole point.
P.S. Ryan Redwood will be back, this weekend, on July 5. So are we.
Bring your sense of humor, your bestie, or just your brave little self.
We’ve got the wine. We’ve got the brushes. You’ve got nothing to lose but your fear.
