Paint Your Pet
Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event
- PIE Event
- Beginner
- PIE Zürich
- 3 Hours
Up to 20% discount for Members
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. Our artist will choose the most paint-worthy one and prepare a drawing template for you, so when you show up, the canvas (or plate!) is ready and waiting. 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.
No experience needed — just a good pet photo and a little flair.

Paint & BRUNCH: Gilded Instinct
PIE Guided Painting Event with Brunch
- PIE Event
- Beginner
- PIE Basel
- 3 hours
Up to 20% discount for Members
Trust the chaos — and add gold.
In this relaxed, expressive session, you’ll create your own bold-yet-beautiful abstract piece using rich emerald greens, soft whites, and shimmering gold. With real gold leaf on the table, your artwork will catch the light in all the right ways — no two pieces alike.
There’s no final image to copy, no pressure to get it “right” — just flow, instinct, and colour. Layer shapes, play with contrast, and let your brush do what it wants. Whether you create calm minimalism or a textured explosion, this is all about letting go and glowing up.
Get into the zone. Take your time. And trust the process — it’s called Gilded Instinct for a reason.
