Paint Night Out: "Colors of a Bear" by John Nieto with Mickey and Laura

Paint a bold, expressive bear in radiant, unexpected color— inspired by the iconic style of John Nieto.
Join us at Artful Soul for our relaxed, once-a-month painting party led by Santa Fe artists Laura Tarnoff and Mickey Bond.
You’ll be guided step-by-step as you create your own version of this striking bear, using vibrant, layered hues and simplified shapes to bring personality and movement to your canvas. This is a playful exploration of color and form—where a bear becomes a celebration of imagination rather than realism.
It’s the perfect way to unwind, spend time with friends, enjoy a creative date, or simply try something new in a welcoming, inspiring studio setting.
No experience needed. We provide all the materials, guidance, and inspiration—you just show up and enjoy. Sip, snack, and settle into a colorful evening of creativity. Feel free to bring your favorite beverage or treat.
