Watercolor: light, flowing, and sometimes… totally unpredictable.

Whether you’re continuing your journey after our Acrylics course or jumping straight into watercolors for the first time, this course is designed to help you understand the medium and feel in controlwhile still embracing its natural, fluid beauty.
You’ll learn essential watercolor techniques like wet-on-wet, wet-on-dry, layering, glazing, and lifting. You’ll discover how to balance control with flow, how to build vibrant layers without overworking your painting, and how to let the water do part of the magic for you.

- Live demonstrations to introduce each technique

🤔 Is This Course Right for Me?
Absolutely! Whether you’re building on your painting basics or diving straight into watercolors, this course will give you the confidence, techniques, and freedom to let the paint flow without fear.
🥂 First Class Vibes: Sips, Snacks & Hellos
We like to kick things off on a warm and social note. During the first class, we’ll take a little extra time to get to know each other — and we’ll toast to the beginning of your creative journey with a welcome drink. Choose from a soft drink, hot drink, wine, prosecco, beer — or our Cocktail of the Week.

Sculpt the View: A PIE Workshop
- PIE Event
- Beginner
- PIE Basel
- 3 hours
Up to 20% discount for Members
Sculpt. Swipe. Splash. Let the coastline take shape.
In this hands-on textured art workshop, we’re heading seaside — no swimsuit needed. You’ll use plaster and modelling paste to sculpt your own beachscape, layering soft sands, crashing waves, rocky edges, or abstract coastlines into a richly textured, touchable scene.
Calm and minimal or bold and windswept — you set the mood. And once the textures are in place, you choose your next move:
🎨 Paint it right away with breezy blues and golden tones,
🖼️ Or let it dry and return another day to finish it — our studio’s always open for round two.
No experience needed — just a love for sea air, sun-drenched vibes, and playing with texture.
You’ll walk away with a coastal creation that’s sculptural, summery, and totally your own.
✨ How PIE Workshops Work
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.

Thick Jungle
Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event
- PIE Event

- 2.5 Hours
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.
