I just got another watercolor painting selected to the International Exhibition of the California Watercolor Association making it in four of the last six years.
Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes — Halloween pumpkins and a cat is one of our most approachable paintings. Absolute first-timers finish this one looking great. Ron walks you through every step, and the whole group moves together so nobody falls behind. Worth knowing: Paint Nite events happen at real bars and restaurants, not studios — it's a night out that happens to involve painting.
A painting class teaches you technique. Paint Nite gives you a finished painting and a good night. Ron is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Murphy's Irish Pub and Restaurant, a real local spot, not a studio. Paint Nite invented this format in 2012 and has sold more than 10 million tickets. The trade-off is honest: lighting varies, it can get loud, and the person at the next easel is a stranger. That's the point. It's more of a night out than a class.
Ron is a real local artist based in SONOMA — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 6 out of 8 guests who've painted with Ron say the instruction was amazing. Becky L. said: 'That you paint a large painting and not only did I learn a lot but I had fun doing it!!'
Murphy's Irish Pub and Restaurant is a local venue in SONOMA — a real local spot, not a dedicated painting studio. Paint Nite events happen at places like this by design — venues with character, regulars, and a bar. It can get lively. That's what makes it a night out rather than a class.
Yes — we have 61 upcoming events in SONOMA this month. You can view them here.
Halloween pumpkins and a cat is a fall painting — rich autumn colors that capture the season beautifully.
Yaymaker is Paint Nite. We brought both brands together under the Paint Nite name — same artists, same events, same format we invented in 2012. More than 10 million tickets have been sold across both brands combined. If you used to attend Yaymaker events in SONOMA, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Halloween pumpkins and a cat includes the canvas, all the paint you'll need, the use of brushes and an apron during the event, and step-by-step instruction from Ron. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Murphy's Irish Pub and Restaurant — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
This event runs approximately 2 hours. Doors open at 2:00 PM — we recommend arriving 15 minutes early to get settled and order your first drink before Ron starts the painting.
You can reschedule your ticket to any other Paint Nite event up to 24 hours before this one starts. After that, tickets are locked — no refunds or changes. If Paint Nite cancels this event for any reason, you'll receive a full automatic refund.
