Welcome back to our regularly scheduled program, everybody. Today, we have a long-time from I’ve been wanting to have as a guest for awhile - Bob Parillo. He is a paint party artist, drummer and karaoke DJ, to name a few.
Bob has always enjoyed painting and was inspired by painters he saw on TV. Took to it, like a natural.
His artistic interests led him to take up drumming. Was in his high school band, which performed at the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, NY.
We met in 2001 when he and his soon-to-be wife, Vanessa were running NY Karaoke. I’d follow them wherever they went because they were friendly and fun and had a great selection of music.
In 2015, it was time for a pivot. They decided to try a new venture - paint parties. And within a few months, their business, Happy Little Brushstrokes was born. Bob has done small parties, parties with as many as 100 attendees all over Long Island and the NY area.
The business has grown steadily and kept Bob pretty busy (which is why it was difficult to schedule an interview with the man).
Unfortunately, during this pandemic, paint parties aren’t being scheduled. But Bob has created an online, virtual painting experience to keep the business going.
I am so glad we got to catch up and learn more about his creative journey. Enjoy my chat with Bob Parillo.
