One glow, all the mystery, maximum vibes.
Ready to get lost in warmth and light?
In this abstract painting session, we’re blending dusky pinks, creamy beige, and shimmering gold — building layers of depth, glow, and quiet drama without painting anything specific.

It’s all about mood on canvas. You’ll create soft fades, luminous highlights, and rich textures with various painting tools like brush, palette knife and sponge. No rules, no right or wrong — just a chance to sink into colour and let it move the way it wants.

Whether you see sunset, silk, or something entirely your own, this one’s about feeling, flow, and that golden moment you never want to end.

Soft morning light. Quiet air. A moment before the heat sets in.
In this painting session, we capture a delicate yellow butterfly resting on a chamomile flower — a scene that feels like an early summer morning in a blooming field. There’s still a hint of coolness in the air, a trace of fog lingering, even though you know the day will soon turn warm and heavy.

This piece is all about paint handling and contrast: thick, expressive application without using modelling paste. You’ll work with a combination of brush and palette knife, learning how to push, shape, and layer paint to create rich, tactile surfaces and a sense of movement within the subject.

We’ll also explore colour in two directions — how to achieve those clean, vibrant tones in the butterfly and flowers, and how to mix softer, muted shades for the background to create depth and atmosphere. You’ll see how these contrasts bring the subject forward while keeping the overall feeling calm and balanced.

A session that’s both technical and intuitive — where texture, colour, and light come together to capture that fleeting, quiet moment of a summer morning.

Action Painting

Feel First, Paint Second: A PIE Workshop

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Action Painting Studio Basel
  • 2,5 hours
from 60.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

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
Treat yourself to a liberating action painting session where you can unwind, let go, sip & snack, and explore your creativity in a whole new way. Come with your friends — or make new ones — as you dive into a feel-good workshop that can be as energetic or as introspective as you like, guided by our lovely local artists.

Step into a space designed for freedom of expression — whether that means bold, dynamic action or a more intuitive, inward approach. Most of our workshops take place in our beautiful, cozy studios — full of colour, good vibes, and a warm, creative atmosphere.

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.

Glide, swirl, and drift into colour.
This one’s for anyone who feels drawn to deep greens, fluid movement, and that calm, almost hypnotic flow. In this guided painting session, you’ll create your own abstract piece inspired by floating in emerald waters — layered, luminous, and full of quiet depth.

You’ll start with loose, flowing layers and intuitive brushstrokes. You`ll work with different tools like brushes, palette knives, and sponges to build up rich emerald tones, soft blends, and subtle textures that feel like movement beneath the surface. Think gentle transitions, watery effects, and colours that melt into each other.

No need to plan or control — just go with the flow, explore, and let the painting unfold in its own rhythm.

Paint Your Pet

Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event

  • PIE Event
  • Beginner
  • PIE Classroom Zürich
  • 3 Hours
from 80.– CHF

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.

Important 🐾
To prepare your personal pet portrait, please send us 3–5 good-quality photos of your pet to:
design@paintiteasy.ch

What we need:

  • High resolution (we will print the photos)
  • Your pet’s face clearly visible (we only paint the portrait)
  • Preferably direct light with clear light and shadow – this makes the painting process much easier for you
  • Ideally a closed mouth (no visible teeth or tongue) – also helps keep the painting process simple and relaxed

Deadline:
Please send your photos at least 3 days before the workshop.
If we don’t receive your photos by then, your booking will be automatically moved to the next available workshop date, so we can prepare everything properly.
Thanks a lot – this helps us create the best possible portrait of your pet 💛

Bringing your pet 🐶🐱
Yes, you’re welcome to bring your pet along to the workshop (we love it!).
Just make sure they’re well-behaved, comfortable around people and other animals, not disruptive, and not dangerous – basically the kind of guest we’d happily invite again 💛


✨ How PIE Workshops Run
You arrive, take a breath, pick your welcome drink and settle into your spot at the table where the magic will happen. 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 — nothing overwhelming, just getting you comfortable and ready to play.

Then the fun really begins. You’ll be guided step by step through the painting process, with plenty of room to play, experiment, and make it your own. Sip your drink, enjoy the moment, and let the creativity flow.

At the end, we bring everyone together for a group photo — your finished piece, great vibes.

  • A chill, friendly atmosphere

Billowing light, drifting blue, and clouds that feel almost touchable.
Step into a sky that seems to breathe — soft, rolling blues rising into thick, sculpted clouds that glow with quiet energy. This piece invites you into an atmosphere of movement and softness, where every brushstroke feels like a shift in the wind.

Along the way, you’ll also learn hands-on techniques that bring the scene to life: how to confidently handle a palette knife for expressive, textured strokes, how to mix and balance blues to create depth and atmosphere, and how to work with modeling paste to sculpt soft, dimensional clouds that lift off the surface of the canvas. You’ll explore how layering, texture, and colour harmony work together to create a sky that feels both dynamic and calm at the same time.

Pouring Acrylics (Tree Ring & Flip Cup)

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Action Painting Studio Basel
  • 2,5 Hours
from 110.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

A workshop where the chaos is the point.
Get ready to tilt, swirl, flip, and pour! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn two of the most satisfying acrylic pouring techniques: Tree Ring and Flip Cup.

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.
Perfect for beginners, mess-lovers, abstract enthusiasts, and anyone who secretly wants to fling paint around without judgement.



✨ 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.

Your ticket includes three 30 x 30 cm canvases.

Sun-dappled stillness, bold brushstrokes, and just a touch of tender mood.
This one’s for the dreamers. In this tranquil painting session, you’ll capture a peaceful pond scene, framed by the cascading branches of a gentle weeping willow — all bathed in lime green, soft yellow, and warm sunlight.

Soft morning light. Quiet air. A moment before the heat sets in.
In this painting session, we capture a delicate yellow butterfly resting on a chamomile flower — a scene that feels like an early summer morning in a blooming field. There’s still a hint of coolness in the air, a trace of fog lingering, even though you know the day will soon turn warm and heavy.

This piece is all about paint handling and contrast: thick, expressive application without using modelling paste. You’ll work with a combination of brush and palette knife, learning how to push, shape, and layer paint to create rich, tactile surfaces and a sense of movement within the subject.

We’ll also explore colour in two directions — how to achieve those clean, vibrant tones in the butterfly and flowers, and how to mix softer, muted shades for the background to create depth and atmosphere. You’ll see how these contrasts bring the subject forward while keeping the overall feeling calm and balanced.

A session that’s both technical and intuitive — where texture, colour, and light come together to capture that fleeting, quiet moment of a summer morning.

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.

Vessels and Vases

Hand-built Creations: A PIE Ceramics Workshop

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Ceramics Zürich
  • 2.5 hours
from 105.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Vessels with handmade character

Looking to level up your clay game? This hands-on ceramics workshop is all about learning the ancient (and oddly satisfying) coiling technique — and using it to build your very own vessel or vase with serious personality.

With step-by-step guidance from our instructor, you’ll shape your piece coil by coil, curve by curve — building form, balance, and your own artistic flair as you go. Whether you lean classic or a little wild, there’s plenty of room to experiment with size, silhouette, and style.

Expect useful demos, creative detours, and a relaxed studio vibe that encourages questions, happy accidents, and the occasional “what if I try this?” moment.

In this class, you will create a vase or vessel approximately 20–25 cm tall. This size is achievable for beginners within the available time using the coiling technique.

Once your piece is complete, we’ll glaze and fire it for you. Ready for pickup in around 4 weeks.

🎨 Want to give it colour too? You’ll get a discount to return for a painting session and decorate your ceramic creation with your own splash of magic.

This one’s for anyone who wants to slow down, shape something special, and make a piece that’s equal parts functional and fabulous.


✨ How PIE Ceramics Workshops Work

Our ceramics workshops are one-off sessions designed for intensive skill-sharing in a relaxed, creative atmosphere. Whether you’re just starting your journey with clay or already have some experience and want to explore a new technique, this is the perfect chance to get your hands dirty, learn something new — and follow your creativity wherever it leads.

Each workshop focuses on a specific process or form, guided by a professional ceramic artist. You’ll learn the core technique step by step, then have space to experiment, personalise, and take your piece in whatever direction feels right to you. It’s structured, supportive, and creatively wide open.

Workshops take place in our cosy, fully-equipped studios in Zürich and Basel, where everything’s set up to support your creative flow — including materials, tools, good lighting, and good vibes.

No pressure, no perfection — just the joy of discovering what you can create with your own two hands.

Your First Creation on the Wheel: Embracing Wabi-Sabi

Shape & Fun: PIE Ceramics Event

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Ceramics Zürich
  • 2 hours
from 120.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Spin it. Shape it. Love the wonky bits.

Ever dreamed of making your own cup or bowl on the pottery wheel? This is your moment to try – no pressure, no perfection, just you, the clay, and the magic of Wabi-Sabi.

In this relaxed, beginner-friendly event, you’ll learn the basics of wheel throwing, how to center the clay, and how to pull up your very first form – maybe a cup, maybe something totally unexpected (and that’s perfectly okay).

We’ll embrace wobbles, curves, and character, celebrating the Japanese art of Wabi-Sabi – finding beauty in imperfection and joy in the process, not just the result.

No experience? No problem. You’ll leave with a piece that’s 100% yours – shaped by your hands and full of personality.


✨ How PIE Ceramics Events Work

Treat yourself to a hands-on creative moment — where you can sip, snack, and sculpt your way through a fun and relaxing ceramics session. Whether you come solo, with friends, or for a team night out, you’ll enjoy a feel-good atmosphere, great company, and your very own ceramic creation to take home (well… after it’s been fired 😉).

Each event is led by one of our friendly ceramic artists, who’ll guide you step-by-step through shaping and decorating your piece. No pressure, no perfection — just good vibes, creative flow, and the joy of getting your hands dirty in the best possible way.

Most of our events take place in our beautiful, cosy studios in Zürich and Basel — fully equipped, full of charm, and designed to spark your imagination. Every now and then, we also pop up in partner venues like bars, cafés, or sunny outdoor locations.
