Big cacti. Bold colours. A sunrise worth waking up for.

Get ready to paint a morning you can almost feel on your skin — warm light, tall saguaros, and that hazy, golden-hour glow that makes the desert feel like another planet (but in a good way). With thick, expressive brushstrokes and juicy colour blends, this session is all about capturing heat, texture, and bold shapes that practically radiate off the canvas.

We’ll channel the quiet energy of the desert at dawn — soft wind, long shadows, and plants that have been doing fierce poses for centuries. It’s meditative, yes. But also kind of badass.

No stress, no rules. Just show up and make something that glows.

Poppies at golden hour — paint them bold, loose, and glowing.

This painting session is all about capturing the warm, wild beauty of a poppy field in the evening light.

You’ll learn how to build a soft, glowing background with acrylics, mix fiery reds and moody purples, and create bold brushstrokes that bring those signature poppy shapes to life — without worrying about perfection. These flowers are meant to be messy, a little abstract, and full of movement.

It’s a great way to practice layering, colour blending, and expressive mark-making — and walk away with a painting that looks like summer bottled up on a canvas.

Swoosh. Twist. Take flight.

Time to throw perfection out the window and lean into the mess. In this semi-guided abstract session, we’re mixing bold colours, big moves.

In this painting session, we dive into pure movement. A single sweeping gesture unfurls across a soft gradient sky — a ribbon of lilac, coral, and deep violet dancing weightlessly in the air. The stroke feels alive, bursting with momentum, texture, and effortless grace.

No pressure, no rules — just color, flow, and instinct. You’ll create a piece that vibrates with energy yet feels calm at its core, a modern echo of motion frozen in the sweetest instant.

✨ How PIE semi-guided events work
Ready for a painting session that gives you just the right mix of direction and freedom?
At our semi-guided events, you get a clear theme and technique to start with – think of them as your creative launchpad. From there, it’s all about what you do with it.

Our artist guides are there to show you the essentials, share tips, and keep you inspired… but the real magic happens when you dive into your own creative waters ;) Follow the guidance closely or take a playful detour – both paths are perfect.

It’s the ideal balance of support and self-expression: enough structure to feel confident, enough freedom to surprise yourself. A little deeper, a little more intentional, and always a lot of fun.

Tickets Eventdetails

Clay is slow, grounding, and full of possibility — and this is where your journey with it begins.

In this beginner-friendly hand-building course, you’ll learn how to shape, sculpt, and decorate clay entirely by hand. Over three weeks, we’ll guide you through the essential techniques — pinch, coil, and slab — and help you build the confidence (and skills!) to start creating your own functional or decorative pieces.

Whether it’s your very first time working with clay or you’ve only had a little taste, this course gives you the structure, support, and inspiration to dig in, get messy, and make something beautiful from scratch.

✏️ What to Expect

Weekly step-by-step guidance in a focused yet relaxed atmosphere
Small-group learning with lots of personal feedback
Demonstrations and hands-on projects that build week to week
Time to explore, experiment, and develop your own style
A welcoming studio space designed to support your creative flow

🧠 What You’ll Learn

The foundations of hand-building: pinch pots, coiling, and slab work
How to handle and shape clay with confidence
The differences between clay types, and how to choose the right one
Techniques for surface decoration — texture, carving, and patterns
An introduction to glazing and its aesthetic impact
What happens during firing, and how clay transforms in the kiln

🎁 What’s Included

All tools, clay, glazes, and materials
Use of our professional ceramics studio
Firing of your pieces (included in course fee)
Safe storage of your work between sessions
Packaging of your finished work for pickup

All you need to bring is comfy clothes and creative energy — we’ll take care of the rest.

🤔 Is This Course Right for Me?

Absolutely. This course is made for:
Complete beginners curious about working with clay
Anyone who’s taken a one-time workshop and wants to go deeper
Hobby artists looking for structured guidance and core skill-building
People who want to make beautiful things with their hands and from scratch

It’s a supportive space where questions are encouraged, and progress is personal.
