You could hear the paintbrush strokes hitting the canvas, the clinking of wine glasses and laughter as the creative bug swept the room. The swish of paintbrushes being cleansed in the water jars, the mesh of different musical styles to inspire and the chatter of admiration as each painting was applauded for its individuality. These are the sounds of the Art Bar SLO, housed in the Granada Hotel and Bistro on Morro Street.
