This isn’t about getting it “perfect” — it’s about getting it out of your head and onto the page.

  • Live demos and examples from comics, manga & more

Just bring your ideas — and let’s bring them to life.

🤔 Is This Course Right for Me?

Yes — if you’ve ever dreamed of telling stories with your art.
Perfect for beginners or hobby creatives who want to explore illustration, comics, manga, or personal projects — no experience required, just imagination.

A calm, layered painting session full of texture, tone, and tropical ease.

This isn’t wild — it’s quietly lush.


In this elegant painting session, you’ll explore the softness of silk-like tropical leaves: overlapping shapes, subtle greens, and textures you can almost feel. Against a white or misty grey background, the leaves take centre stage — layered, delicate, and just a little bit sculptural.

Pour Me a Meadow

Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event

  • Beginner
  • PIE Basel
  • 2.5 Hours
from 59.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

A lush, expressive painting session that’s equal parts sunset, petals, and joyful chaos.
It’s the meadow from a frog’s-eye view — stems towering overhead, flowers leaning into the last pink light of the day.

In this vibrant autumn-inspired session, you’ll capture a field that’s wild, textured, and just a little bit magical: grasses swaying, blooms bursting, and a soft, glowing sky after sunset.


And we won’t stop at brushwork — this is a playground for every technique. You’ll dribble, flick, pour, sizzle, and sprinkle paint to create depth, movement, and a touch of contemporary edge. Each layer adds richness, making your meadow feel like it’s still swaying in the evening breeze.

Bold blooms, a pink-tinged sky, and a whole lot of painterly freedom.

Come for the flowers. Stay for the glorious mess.

A portrait session for devoted humans and the four-legged icons they adore.
Your pet is already a star — now it’s time to immortalise them in paint.

In this custom, joy-filled session, you’ll create a one-of-a-kind portrait of your beloved animal (real, imagined, or emotionally adopted). Think soulful eyes, majestic fluff, and maybe a tiny crown or a glass of wine in paw — because obviously.

After you book, you’ll send us a few photos of your pet.

Yes — you can also choose to paint your pet onto a ceramic plate. Because what’s better than eating spaghetti off your dog’s face? Nothing.

With step-by-step guidance and space for your weirdest, cutest ideas, this session is part portrait, part love letter, and 100% celebration.

Intuitive Painting

Feel First, Paint Second: A PIE Workshop

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Zürich
  • 3 hours
from 60.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

a.k.a. Abstract Improvisation – let it flow, not fit.

This isn’t about “getting it right.”
This is about letting go, following your instinct, and making something raw, bold, weird, calming, chaotic — or all of the above.

In this intuitive abstract painting workshop, we swap technique for trust, and outcomes for play. No fixed subject, no rules — just a big canvas, a pile of tools, and your curiosity in the driver’s seat. Whether you leave with a masterpiece or a glorious mess, the point is: you showed up, you created, and you felt something.

We’ll set the mood with a specially curated playlist of meditative + emotionally expressive tracks, and you’ll get access to all the good stuff: rollers, brushes, spatulas, a protective suit (yes, really), and a generous 40 × 50 cm canvas to start. Want to go bigger? You can upgrade when booking – or decide on the spot.

Guidance is there if you want it — but your brush, your vibe, your call.

🎨 Canvas info:
✓ 40 × 50 cm included
→ 60 × 80 cm: + CHF 10
→ 80 × 100 cm: + CHF 30
→ 100 × 120 cm: + CHF 60

Extra canvases can also be purchased on-site.

✨ How the Workshop Works

Think of a Paint It Easy event — but with more time, more technique, and more creative depth. Our workshops are all about learning something new and meaningful while still enjoying the relaxed, feel-good PIE vibe.

Each workshop is guided by a professional artist and focuses on a specific creative technique, style, or material. Whether you’re trying it for the first time or want to deepen existing skills, you’ll get personal guidance, hands-on support, and time to really explore the process.

Most workshops take place in our beautiful, cosy studios in Zürich or Basel — full of colour, creativity, and a welcoming atmosphere. From time to time, we also host them at inspiring partner venues or outdoors in the sunny season.

No stress, no pressure — just a great setting to experiment, learn something new, and create something truly yours.

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.

🥂 A Toast to Creativity

We kick off every workshop with a complimentary welcome drink — the perfect way to settle in, connect with fellow creatives, and get inspired. Choose from:
• A soft drink or hot drink
• A glass of wine, prosecco, or beer
• Or our rotating Cocktail of the Week

What happens when a goldfish meets a black cat with zero self-control?

In this playful Matisse-inspired painting session, we’re recreating a scene full of bold shapes, vibrant colours, and a very curious kitty caught mid-mischief — paw deep in the fishbowl.

You’ll channel the flat, expressive style of Matisse while having a blast with colour blocking, composition, and a little chaos.

Perfect for cat lovers, colour fanatics, and anyone who believes art should make you grin.

Thick Jungle

Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event

  • PIE Event
  • Beginner
  • PIE Basel
  • 2.5 Hours
from 59.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

A calm, layered painting session full of texture, tone, and tropical ease.

This isn’t wild — it’s quietly lush.


In this elegant painting session, you’ll explore the softness of silk-like tropical leaves: overlapping shapes, subtle greens, and textures you can almost feel. Against a white or misty grey background, the leaves take centre stage — layered, delicate, and just a little bit sculptural.

We’ll work with close tones and tonal contrast to build depth and movement — no harsh lines, just slow brushwork and the meditative rhythm of shadow and shape.

It’s the kind of painting that makes you breathe slower. Calm greens, quiet elegance, and a canvas that says more the longer you look at it.


No experience needed — just a love of nature, neutrals, and detail that speaks softly.

Resin Art: Abstract Swirls

A PIE workshop: design your own unique resin objects

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Zürich
  • 2.5 Hours
from 40.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Glossy vibes. Bold colour. Zero chill.

So, you’ve decided to dive into the world of resin? Excellent choice — it’s glossy, it’s satisfying, and a little addictive (in the best way).

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the basics of epoxy resin: what it is, how it works, and how to pour it like a pro. After a quick demo from your instructor, you’ll mix your colours, pick your surface, and get to pouring.

You can create one of the following resin art pieces:
🎨 4 abstract coasters
🖼️ A framed resin painting
🕰️ A working resin clock
🍽️ A marble-like serving tray
☕ Or… a full-on abstract coffee table 😍

You’ll learn all the tools, tips, and hacks:
✨ How to get that perfect swirl
✨ What to do (and what not to do) when pouring
✨ How to mix your pigments for dreamy, hypnotic effects

Perfect for beginners, DIY-lovers, and anyone who’s mesmerised by that moment when the colours start to swirl.


✨ How the Workshop Works

Think of a Paint It Easy event — but with more time, more technique, and more creative depth. Our workshops are all about learning something new and meaningful while still enjoying the relaxed, feel-good PIE vibe.

Each workshop is guided by a professional artist and focuses on a specific creative technique, style, or material. Whether you’re trying it for the first time or want to deepen existing skills, you’ll get personal guidance, hands-on support, and time to really explore the process.

Most workshops take place in our beautiful, cosy studios in Zürich or Basel — full of colour, creativity, and a welcoming atmosphere. From time to time, we also host them at inspiring partner venues or outdoors in the sunny season.

No stress, no pressure — just a great setting to experiment, learn something new, and create something truly yours.

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.

  • PIE Zürich
  • 3 hours
from 40.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Waves, shine, and a whole lotta pour decisions.

Get ready to dive into the world of resin art — where colour, texture, and shiny ocean vibes come together in one smooth pour. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll create your very own Beachscape masterpiece using epoxy resin, vibrant pigments, and a bit of technique (plus a little magic).

We’ll show you the ropes: how resin works, what to mix (and what not to), and how to get those beautiful coastline-style swirls and ocean effects that are equal parts mesmerising and addictive.

🐚 What can you make?

You’ll choose your canvas (or tray… or clock!) and create a functional or decorative piece with real wave power. Pick from:

  • 4 Beachscape Coasters
  • A Beachscape Framed Picture
  • A Beachscape Clock
  • A round Beachscape Tray
  • Or a Beachscape Coffee Table (yes, really!)

🧪 You’ll Learn:

  • How to mix & pour resin like a pro
  • Ocean-inspired layering & blending tricks
  • Tools, safety & “what not to do” hacks
  • All the steps to make your piece durable and beautiful

This workshop is beginner-friendly, no prior experience needed — just bring your beachy vibes and we’ll handle the rest.
