Introduction to Soft Pastels

A sky full of sparkle, a lake full of magic, and zero light pollution.

Grab your brush, wish on a nebula, and dive into a night that’s anything but ordinary. This dreamy acrylic painting event takes you under a starry sky so vivid, you’ll practically hear the trees holding their breath.

Think: shimmering galaxies, glowing reflections, and deep-space blues that make your canvas feel like the universe zoomed in just for you. Add in some silhouetted trees, a calm lake, and your own cosmic flair — and you’ve got a painting that’s equal parts peaceful and powerful.

No telescope required. Just paint, relax, and channel your inner stargazer.
Because honestly? You are made of stars. So paint like it. 💫

Saturday morning art fun for kids (and cool parents too)

No need to change out of your jammies — just roll in, grab a smoothie, and get painting!

This fun-filled Saturday class is made for kids aged 6–12 and packed with creative projects, giggles, and good vibes. Parents are welcome to join and paint side-by-side with their little artists (yes, matching masterpieces are totally a thing).

Here’s how it flows:
🕥 10:15–10:30 → Drop-off + smoothies & snacks
🎨 10:30–12:00 → Guided art project time
📸 12:00–12:15 → Pick-up + silly family photos (encouraged!)

The theme changes every week, but one thing’s for sure: it’ll be a crowd-pleaser — colourful, fun, and totally kid-approved.

We usually paint on high-quality art paper, but if you’d like to upgrade to canvas (perfect for framing or exhibiting), just let us know on the day.

PJs optional. Creativity? Always.

Not your average straight lines.

It’s time to ditch the detail work and go full abstract. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll sculpt your way into bold, modern compositions — layering plaster and modeling paste to create texture you can actually feel.

Think palette knives, spatulas, maybe even a fork or your fingers — anything goes. Play with shape, line, and movement to build a piece that’s raw, expressive, and 100% you.

Once you’ve nailed the texture, it’s your call:

• Add colour on the spot
• Or let it dry and come back later — the studio’s always open for round two

No experience needed — just curiosity and a willingness to get a little messy.
Whether you love minimal elegance or maximalist chaos, this one’s your playground.

You’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind abstract artwork full of bold energy and sculptural charm.

✨ How the Workshop Works

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.

We kick off every workshop 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

That’s exactly what makes it so exciting.
