Chamomile in Bloom: Texture, Light & Depth
This one is gonna be a beautiful painting session dedicated to our favourite, the chamomile flower. This time, we’ll be working with textured paste and the palette knife as our second protagonist.
You will learn how to shape the simple yet iconic chamomile petals, placing them in perspective to create a real sense of depth and movement. Along the way, we’ll also explore the basics of colour mixing, focusing on achieving those vibrant, high-contrast harmonies between warm yellows and cool blues.
A tactile, expressive session where texture, light, and colour come together to bring the chamomile to life.

Crash. Curl. Colour. A wave comes alive on canvas.
In this semi-guided textured session, you’ll ride the swell — a giant wave rising from the sea, ready to tumble and curl. Using modelling paste and paint, you’ll build layers of frothy foam, dynamic water movement, and the energy of the ocean captured in bold, sculpted strokes. Think drama, texture, and a playful sense of motion in every crest and curl.
No experience needed — just a love for texture, colour, and a bit of creative adventure. You’ll leave with a tactile, vibrant seascape that’s bursting with energy, movement, and watery wonder.

She’s floating. She’s glowing. She’s not thinking about emails.
A sunset painting session where calm meets colour and a surfer silhouette steals the scene.
In this dreamy painting session, you’ll capture the soft magic of a golden-hour ocean — warm pink skies, calm waves, and one cool surfer girl gazing toward the light.
You’ll work with gentle blends, soft silhouettes, and glowing tones to build a peaceful-yet-bold composition. The result? A moment of stillness that radiates summer mood, cinematic calm, and salty confidence.

Splash. Drip. Splatter. Total freedom.
The perfect stress release after a tense week.
In this action painting session, you’ll suit up in full-body protective overalls, grab your colours, and step into a space designed for making a glorious mess. Channel your inner Pollock as you throw, pour, drip, and smear paint with energy and spontaneity.
But this experience can be as wild — or as introspective — as you want it to be.
Beyond the action, this workshop also opens the door to intuitive painting: a space to slow down, tune in, and connect with your inner landscape. Through a short but meaningful introduction to colour theory, you’ll explore how thoughts and emotions can be translated into colour, movement, and form.
You’ll experiment with layering, different tools, and a wide range of mark-making techniques — from bold, expressive gestures to more subtle, intentional strokes. Throwing paint is just one of many possibilities — you choose where to place your focus.
No rules, no pressure — just pure expression, guided by our artists who support your individual approach and meet you where you are.
This is more than fun — it’s liberating. You’ll leave not only with a unique artwork, but with new ways to express yourself, release tension, and tap into your creativity — on and off the canvas.
✨ How PIE Action Painting Workshops Run
You arrive, take a breath, pick your welcome drink — and instead of sitting down, you step into it. You’ll get your protective overalls, switch into painting mode, and get ready to let go a little. We start on time, so make sure you’re there and ready to dive in.
Next, your instructor takes the stage, giving you a quick, easy intro to the materials and tools — showing you what’s possible, how to move, splash, layer, and play. Nothing overwhelming, just getting you comfortable and ready to experiment.
Then the fun really begins. You’ll explore layering, different tools, and a wide range of mark-making techniques. The space is yours to explore: move between the splashing area, where you can let loose, and the refining area, where you can slow things down and shape your piece. Throughout the session, your instructor is there to guide you with personal tips and support.
At the end, we bring everyone together for a group photo — with your finished piece and great vibes.
No prior experience? No problem! We provide everything*:
- A chill, friendly atmosphere
- All the necessary art supplies
- Full-body overalls and shoe protection
- A mix of demonstration & individual guidance
* We provide protective overalls, but we highly recommend not wearing your favourite or most expensive clothes, as paint may still seep through. Please also bring a pair of socks that you don’t mind getting paint on or wet.

Pouring Acrylics (Dutch Pour, Kiss Pour)
Pour. Tilt. Wow – A PIE Workshop
- Workshop
- Beginner
- PIE Action Painting Studio Basel
- 2,5 hours
Up to 20% discount for Members
A workshop where the chaos is the point.
Get ready to pour and blow! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn two of the more advanced and most satisfying acrylic pouring techniques: Dutch Pour & Kiss Pour. (Yes, is the one where you`ll use a blowdryer to move the paint accross the surface!)
Acrylic pouring is all about letting the paint do its thing. It’s unpredictable, a little messy, and incredibly satisfying.
Instead of brushes, you’ll work with fluid acrylics, tilting, layering, and guiding the movement across your canvas to create organic patterns, soft blends, and those signature “cells” that make every piece feel alive.
You’ll combine colours in a way that creates contrast and harmony at the same time, learning how different densities interact and how small shifts in movement can completely transform the result. From smooth, flowing gradients to bold, marbled effects — no two pours ever turn out the same.
You’ll create 3 unique artworks on 30 × 30 cm canvases, and yes:
It’ll look like you totally meant to do that.
✨ How PIE Pouring Workshops Runs
Acrylic Pouring is one of the most mesmerising – and yes, also one of the messiest – ways to paint. If you’ve ever fallen into the endless stream of pouring videos online, you’ll know how unpredictable (and sometimes frustrating) it can be to figure it out on your own.
You arrive, take a breath, pick your welcome drink, and settle in at your table — where the magic begins. We start on time, so make sure you’re ready to dive in. Your instructor gives you an in-depth introduction to the pouring materials and techniques — nothing overwhelming, just enough to get you comfortable and inspired. They’ll also demonstrate the process step by step in real time, sharing the essential know-how so you can skip the long trial-and-error phase. You’ll learn how to mix your paints to the right consistency, control the flow, and use different pouring techniques without creating unnecessary chaos.
The goal isn’t to take away the magic of experimentation, but to give you a shortcut to the satisfying part — where colours flow, react, and create beautiful, organic patterns. Less guesswork, less mess, and more time to actually enjoy this fluid, almost hypnotic way of painting.
It’s one of those workshops where it’s very hard to get it “wrong.” Almost anything you do will lead to interesting and beautiful results, which makes it especially rewarding and forgiving. Because of this, it’s perfect for complete beginners who have never worked with acrylic paint before.
We provide everything you need:
- A warm and friendly learning environment
- All necessary materials and tools
- A mix of demonstration & individual guidance
- Artistic freedom — everyone interprets the technique their own way
Whether you’re a motivated beginner or a curious creative, this is the space to dive deeper, discover new methods, and leave with a skill that sticks. All you need to bring is your good vibes and curiosity! We’ll take care of the rest — starting with a complimentary welcome drink 🥂 to spark your creativity.

In this vibrant acrylic session, we’ll dive headfirst into the iconic world of Claude Monet’s water lilies — minus the stuffy museum voice. Think soft petals, bold colour, dreamy reflections and the kind of loose, expressive brushwork that lets you paint what you feel, not just what you see.
You’ll learn how to blend, dab, layer, and play with light — all while creating your own version of this impressionist masterpiece. Classic or totally reimagined? Your pond, your rules.
Perfect for beginners, flower fans, and anyone who’s ever wanted to say, “Oh that? I painted it. It’s my Monet.”
✨ How PIE Paint & Brunch Workshops Run
You arrive at Bederstrasse 94 and ease into the experience with a curated brunch — a moment to settle in, connect, and get into the right mood before painting.
After brunch, the creative part of the experience begins. Your instructor takes the stage, giving you a quick, easy intro to the materials and techniques, before leading you step by step into the painting process with plenty of room to play, experiment, and make it your own. No pressure — just space to unwind, explore, and enjoy the moment.
At the end, we bring everyone together for a group photo — your finished piece, great vibes.
No prior experience? No problem! We provide everything:
- A chill, friendly atmosphere
- All the necessary art supplies
- Pre-prepared templates
- Step-by-step guidance from our instructors
All you need to bring is your good vibes and curiosity— we’ll take care of the rest ;)
