HBO Hosts Paint and Sip Event in NYC to Celebrate the Release of
Big Little Lies on Digital HD!
First of all I want to thank HBO for hosting this marvelous event at the Painting Lounge in Midtown New York City! If you haven’t heard of HBO’s Big Little Lies you must be living under a rock somewhere. Be prepared to binge watch. I haven’t been able to stop since I received the download of the series.
Big Little Lies is based in the tranquil seaside town of Monterey, California, where nothing is quite as it seems. Doting moms, successful husbands, adorable children, beautiful homes: What lies will be told to keep their perfect worlds from unraveling? Told through the eyes of three mothers – Madeline (Reese Witherspoon), Celeste (Nicole Kidman) and Jane (Shailene Woodley) – Big Little Lies paints a picture of a town fueled by rumors and divided into the haves and have-nots, exposing the conflicts, secrets and betrayals that compromise relationships between husbands and wives, parents and children, and friends and neighbors.
HBO Hosted Paint and Sip:
The Painting Lounge in Midtown NY is located on 40 West 38th St. After we buzzed in we were greeted by wonderful staff and directed to our room (they have a couple) and where to hang up our coats. The theme was a beach scene inspired by Big Little Lies. Each guest received a code to download Season 1 and the Soundtrack! Nice!
The soundtrack played and the wine and snacks were flowing freely. People seemed to be having a good time. Personally, I love the Sip and Paint because it truly is for everyone. The staff helps, your friends help, and you make new friends!
They take you step by step through the process of painting your own masterpiece. Every one is an artist at a Sip and Paint.
I love my painting! I’m going to hang it in my bathroom. Now that I’m deep in the season of Big Little Lies I love it even more! Digital download is now available and it includes all 7 episodes as well as six fascinating “Inside the Episode” pieces and an exclusive extended “About Big Little Lies” piece featuring never-before-seen cast interviews and behind-the-scenes footage. Blu-ray and DVD are to be released on August 1, 2017.
The cast also includes, Alexander Skarsgård, Emmy®-nominee Laura Dern, Adam Scott, Zoë Kravitz, James Tupper and Jeffrey Nordling. Big Little Lies is written for television and created by David E. Kelley (seven-time Emmy® winner for “Picket Fences”, “LA Law”, “The Practice” and “Ally McBeal”; “Goliath”) and directed by Jean-Marc Vallée (“Dallas Buyers Club”; “Wild”; “Demolition”).
Disclosure: This was a hosted event and I was given digital downloads for attending. I was under no obligation to write a post, etc. All thoughts are my own.
Amy Brooks says
I have done these paint nights several times and they are so fun!!! It’s amazing how they can take someone who is totally not an artist and help them be successful! Your painting looks fantastic!
Carrie Chance says
I haven’t watched Big Little Lies but I may have to check it out. It sounds like something I would like. I also would love to do a painting event with my family. My daughter has been showing a big interest in art this summer but it’s just not in the budget. The paintings look great!
Heather Lawrence says
I haven’t done a paint night in years!
They are so much fun and I honestly didn’t think I could paint until I went to one.
So much fun!
Brandi Crawford says
I wish I was in NYC to attend this event. I LOVED this show and I will be reading the book next week while on vacation. This sounds like an amazing event.
Rebecca Bryant says
Wow, what a great event. You are so lucky to live in a city that offers these awesome events. I may be a wee bit jealous of you. Not I love my country life. BTW you look gorgeous in this pic.

I have heard a lot of great things about Big Little Lies. It’s on my “must watch” list for this summer. A sip and paint night sounds like fun and your painting turned out great! Thanks for sharing it with us 🙂
Lois Alter Mark says
Wow, you did an amazing job with that painting! I loved Big Little Lies. I was worried that I wouldn’t like it as much as the book but the performances were fantastic, and Nicole Kidman deserves an Emmy, for sure.
