A wild abstract painting session full of colour, chaos, and satisfying texture.
Who needs brushes when you’ve got a spatula, a mountain of modelling paste, and a whole mood to express?
In this bold, all-in painting session, you’ll layer, swipe, and sculpt your way into pure colour play — no plan, no pressure, just bold marks and thick textures that practically stand off the canvas.
We’ll work point by point, swipe by swipe, building up vibrant patterns and punchy colour fields that shift as you move. It’s a little pointillist, a little sculptural, and totally freeing.
Expect music, mess, and moments of accidental brilliance. This one’s for anyone who’s ever wanted to stop thinking and just create.
More colour. More texture. More joy.
Bring the energy — we’ve got the paste.

Sculpt. Swipe. Smear. Flower it up.
Get ready to roll up your sleeves and dive into floral art with real dimension. In this hands-on workshop, we’re swapping brushes for palette knives (and maybe a spoon or two) to shape, swipe, and sculpt your own textured masterpiece — all using plaster and modeling paste.
Whether you go bold and chunky or soft and delicate, you’ll learn how to build raised floral forms that are just as satisfying to touch as they are to look at.
Once you’re happy with the texture, you’ll choose your next step:
- Add colour and bring it to life now,
- Or let it dry and come back to paint it later — our studio’s always open for round two.
No experience? No problem.
This one’s perfect for beginners, trowel-lovers, and anyone who likes their art with a bit of sculpted flair.
You’ll leave with a piece that’s uniquely yours — floral, fabulous, and full of texture.

Paint like Vincent...
Some skies are calm. This one is electric — spinning with stars, streaked with midnight blue, and pulsing with van Gogh’s restless, brilliant energy.
In this vivid, feel-everything painting session, you’ll step into the swirl and create your own version of the world’s most famous night. Deep blues, bright yellows, bold strokes — it’s less about getting it “right” and more about letting the movement take over.
It’s dreamy. It’s a little dramatic. It’s the kind of sky that makes you want to pick up a brush and not come back down.

Paint like Vincent...
Some skies are calm. This one is electric — spinning with stars, streaked with midnight blue, and pulsing with van Gogh’s restless, brilliant energy.
In this vivid, feel-everything painting session, you’ll step into the swirl and create your own version of the world’s most famous night. Deep blues, bright yellows, bold strokes — it’s less about getting it “right” and more about letting the movement take over.
It’s dreamy. It’s a little dramatic. It’s the kind of sky that makes you want to pick up a brush and not come back down.
✨ How the Event Works

Sculpt. Shape. Sunbathe. A beach day on canvas.
In this semi-guided textured event, we’re going overhead — your view of the seaside from above. With modelling paste and paint, you’ll shape foamy waves, sandy shores, and scatter tiny umbrellas with sunbathers below. Think playful details, summer vibes, and a splash of humour worked into every stroke.
No experience needed — just a taste for fun, bright colours, and beachy imagination. You’ll leave with a holiday scene that’s tactile, vibrant, and full of summer joy.
✨ 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.
🥂 A Toast to Creativity
We kick off every event 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
Want to treat yourself? Upgrade to one of our signature cocktails, mocktails, smoothies, or special drinks for just CHF 5–9.
🍴 Hungry for more?
Our Creative Café offers a tasty à la carte menu during the session — featuring wraps, bowls, finger foods, and healthy snacks to keep your energy (and creativity) up. Additional drinks can be ordered at regular menu prices.

FAQ - Your questions, our answers
It's perfect for reducing stress, getting creative and simply letting go.
An expressive painting technique in which colour is freely sprayed, flung or dripped onto the canvas - it is about spontaneous creativity rather than perfectionism.
Nothing at all - you can get everything you need from us: paints, canvases and protective clothing included.
We use high-quality acrylic paints - they are bright, versatile and dry quickly.
Dripping is an action painting technique in which paint drips or flows directly from a brush, stick or other source onto the canvas. Jackson Pollock made this method world famous. Dripping creates dynamic, organic patterns and gives you the freedom to just paint away.
Jackson Pollock introduced this style to the art world, and Harold Rosenberg coined the term "Action Painting" in 1952.
Of course! Your work of art is yours and you can take it home with you.
