Creating a 2-D rendition on canvas requires either the ability to masterfully wield a paintbrush or the strength to flatten a fruit bowl. Discover your artful brawn with today's Groupon: for $17, you get a painting session in a small group from The Spirited Canvas (a $35 value). Classes take place at a local dining venue, which varies by session. The studio's calendar will be continually updated.

The Spirited Canvas's aesthetically inclined instructors awaken aspiring artists’ inner Picassos with small-group painting sessions. After reserving a seat in an approximately three-hour meeting, artistes should arrive to the designated restaurant 20 minutes early to receive an apron, canvas, set of paints and brushes, easel, and crowd of admiring intellectuals. Eats and drinks are not included in today’s Groupon, but before session leaders begin each tutorial, students have the option of ordering a warm meal and spirited beverages. During the session, fledgling Fridas receive step-by-step instruction on how to create a personalized painting. After the meeting, each guest will take home a 16"x20" canvas filled with a landscape, still life, or a smattering of all the shades on the color wheel.
