Ceramic Painting & Gipfeli: Misty Pines

Sculptural curves, 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.

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.

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

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.

Spin it. Shape it. Love the wonky bits.

Ever dreamed of making your own cup 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.

Cosmic swirls. Shiny depths. Full interstellar drama.

Ready to make your own galaxy? Perfect — resin is exactly the medium for people who want their art bold, glossy, and just a little bit otherworldly.

In this workshop, you’ll explore the magic of epoxy resin and learn how to create swirling, star-filled nebula effects. After a quick demo, you’ll mix shimmering pigments, sprinkle metallic star-dust, and watch your colours drift, blend, and explode like tiny universes.

Choose your surface, pick your palette, and pour your way into deep-space vibes. It’s hands-on, a bit unpredictable, and wildly satisfying — just like the cosmos itself.

✨ How PIE Resin Workshops Runs
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 materials and technique — 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 resin to the right consistency, control the flow, and use different techniques without creating unnecessary chaos.

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

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.

✨ Safety Info
Working with resin can create light vapours during the process — this is part of the material and how it behaves. While we use high-quality, art-grade products, we recommend this workshop for guests aged 15+ and advise against participation if you are pregnant or have sensitive respiratory conditions (such as asthma). Our studio is well ventilated and sessions are time-limited, but your comfort and safety are important to us. That’s why we offer a few options for you to choose what feels right:

•Bring your own mask
Feel free to bring a suitable respirator or fine dust mask (FF A1P2 or higher) and wear it during the session.

• Rent a mask (CHF 10.–)
We’re happy to provide you with a mask equipped with a fresh filter for the duration of the workshop. Simply return it afterwards — the fee covers the filter.

• Join without a mask
If you decide not to wear a mask, we’ll ask you to sign a short waiver confirming that you’ve been informed and are comfortable participating without respiratory protection.

Storage & Shipping
Your creations need approximately 48 hours to fully cure and dry, so they can’t be taken home on the day of the workshop.

Once ready, your artwork will be available for pick-up at our studio for up to two weeks after your session. As our storage space is limited, we’re only able to keep pieces for this period.

If you’re unable to collect your work within these two weeks, you can also choose our shipping service — simply let your instructor know on site during or at the end of the workshop. After the two-week window, we unfortunately can no longer guarantee storage of your artwork.

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.


✨ 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.

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.

🖼️ Canvas Size & Upgrades
Your ticket includes a 40 x 50 cm canvas, which you can upgrade to larger sizes - just choose the option when booking your ticket, or decide spontaneously at the workshop.
