When I initially had to reschedule our appointment, I explained that I was undergoing breast cancer treatment and had received a double dose of chemotherapy a couple of days before. The treatment had taken a serious toll on my body, and I simply was not well enough to attend. Although the owner was snippy with me at the time, she ultimately agreed to the rescheduling. I thanked her and confirmed that the six people who had already paid would attend on the new date. On the rescheduled date, I unfortunately had to call again and ask for understanding because of another unexpected situation. My best friend, who was supposed to attend with us, had to be rushed to the emergency room. I was completely transparent with the employee who answered the phone and explained that I had previously needed to reschedule because of my chemotherapy. The employee spoke with the owner, and I was told that the owner authorized all SIX of us to come and paint on August 11. I expressed my apologies and gratitude. When we arrived to paint, the owner told the instructor that only three people would be allowed to paint. I then spoke with the owner directly, and she told me that she would only honor three painters and claimed that this information had been sent to me by email. I explained that, just as I had told her employee, I had recently undergone chemotherapy and did not have the opportunity to constantly check my email. I had also been traveling to New York to be with my sisters during this difficult time. Her employee had told me that she understood the circumstances and that everything was confirmed for six people on August 11. Instead of showing even a small amount of compassion or attempting to resolve the misunderstanding, the owner was extremely rude and disrespectful. She interrupted me, told me that she did not care about what I had discussed with her employee, and essentially dismissed everything I was saying. She also told me that although she would honor the three painters, I should not think about coming back to her business. I have never been treated so poorly by a business owner, especially after being completely honest about what I was going through. I understand that businesses have policies, but there is a huge difference between enforcing a policy and treating a customer with cruelty and disrespect. The owner's behavior was completely unacceptable. I sincerely hope she learns that compassion, communication, and basic courtesy matter--especially when someone is going through an extremely difficult time.

Unfortunately, some people misunderstood the owner's decision, made in an abundance of caution, to "censor" a picture over a perceived potential copyright violation before posting it on Facebook. These people took it as a slight on their profession, began sharing their anger on social media until it went viral, and a virtual mob was born. Board & Brush doesn't deserve any negative comments that were posted as a result of that campaign, nor do they deserve the threatened boycott.

I've been hoping to nurture my creative side and doing it while drinking might help get my juices flowing. Their website boasts a whole array of paintings, there are pretty landscapes, rustic designs and some fun and festive ones, priced around $25-45 each depending on the length and difficulties. I saw a few more challenging ones that I'm very interested to satisfy my type-A personality. There's also one that you can install some lights to shine through the canvas. I'm definitely going to sign up for that. Since it's a BYOB, we went to buy two bottle of wines, dressed up in our costumes and headed out to check this out. It was located in an unassuming strip mall on Nazareth Pike. We were met with very pleasant staff who dressed as zombies and zombie hunter while assuring us that they usually look more normal, ha! The manager painted himself as Vincent Van Gogh' self portrait, I thought to myself that we were in for a creative night. The painting itself was a gloomy zombie walk in a grave yard. It lends itself to some fun shadow work. The host taught us how to paint it step by step with funny anecdotes and games in between while we refill our wine glass every now and then. Two hours flew by and everyone finished their paintings on time. I think we all left satisfied. My other friends later saw my handiwork and commented on it and I think we'll come back to try other ones. What a fun hobby to pick up!
