Paint Your Pet Portrait

We recommend arriving 10–15 minutes before the workshop starts so you have time to enjoy your complimentary welcome drink, settle in, and get ready for the creative experience.

Our workshops begin punctually, so we kindly ask everyone to arrive on time. If you do happen to arrive late, simply join the group quietly. Your artist will help you catch up as soon as there’s a suitable moment during the workshop.

Your artist will guide you step by step through the painting process, while leaving plenty of room to experiment, make the artwork your own, and simply enjoy a relaxed creative evening.

At the end of the workshop, we’re happy to take photos of you and your finished artwork. We’ll also dry your painting as much as possible and provide you with a paper carry bag so you can safely take it home.

Your ticket includes everything you need for a great creative experience:

• 🎨 All paints, brushes and art materials
• 🖼️ A 30 × 40 cm canvas
• 👩‍🎨 Step-by-step guidance from one of our artists
• ✨ A relaxed and welcoming atmosphere
• 🥂 A complimentary welcome drink

No previous painting experience is required.

Your ticket includes a 30 × 40 cm canvas.

If you’d like something bigger, you can upgrade to:

• 40 × 50 cm canvas
• Round canvas (Ø 40 cm)

You can select your upgrade while booking or decide on the day of your workshop.

Want to paint together? Couples, friends and family can also create one artwork across two canvases. Simply ask your instructor whether your chosen theme works well as a split painting, and they’ll be happy to help you set it up.

Most painting workshops last around 2.5 hours. This includes the introduction, the guided painting session, time to socialise, group photos, and wrapping up at the end. You’ll spend around two hours painting.

Depending on the painting theme and the pace of the group, the actual duration may vary slightly—typically between 2 and 3 hours.

The expected duration of each workshop is always shown in the workshop description before you book.

Tickets may be transferred to someone else at any time.

If your plans change, you can reschedule your booking up to 72 hours before the workshop.

Unfortunately, cancellations or changes are no longer possible within 36 hours of the event.

For full details, please see our Terms & Conditions.

Not at all!

Our workshops are designed to suit everyone – from complete beginners to experienced hobby artists. Your artist will guide you step by step, while still giving you plenty of freedom to make your artwork your own.

Every workshop ticket includes one complimentary welcome drink to help you settle in and get your creativity flowing.

Typical options include:

• ☕ Coffee, tea or matcha
• 🧋 Iced tea
• 🌿 Mate
• 🌸 Rhubarb Schorley
• 🍊 Orange lemonade
• 🫚 Ginger beer
• 🍺 Beer (18+)
• 🍷 Wine (18+)
• 🥂 Prosecco (18+)

The exact selection may vary slightly between locations, but we’ll always have something delicious waiting for you.

We provide aprons, and acrylic paint usually washes off skin easily. However, we still recommend wearing clothes you don’t mind getting a little paint on, just in case creativity gets a bit enthusiastic!

Of course! If you booked together, we’ll seat you together automatically whenever possible.

If you booked separately, simply let us know when you arrive, and we’ll do our best to seat you together.

We generally recommend taking your artwork home with you after the workshop. Even if the paint is still a little wet, we’ll provide a paper carry bag so you can take it home safely.

If you’d prefer to leave your painting with us, you’re welcome to do so. We can store it for up to seven days, so please make sure to collect it within this time during opening hours. After that, we can’t guarantee that we’ll be able to continue storing it. While we take great care of all artworks left in our studios, we cannot accept responsibility for any loss or damage that may occur during storage.

Yes!

If your workshop takes place in one of our Creative Cafés, you’re welcome to order additional drinks, coffee, cocktails, and food from our à la carte menu throughout your visit.

If your workshop is hosted in one of our Art Studios, you can still enjoy another round of drinks from our Welcome Drink Menu. Additional drinks in our studios are donation-based, so you can simply contribute what you feel is appropriate.

Yes! We regularly host birthdays, team events, bachelor and bachelorette parties, family celebrations, and private workshops.

If you’re planning something special, we’d love to hear from you.

Please email us 3–5 high-quality photos of your pet to design@paintiteasy.ch at least 3 days before your workshop.

This gives us enough time to prepare your personalised drawing template before you arrive.

The better the photo, the easier—and more beautiful—your painting will be.

We recommend:

• High resolution
• Your pet looking towards the camera
• Good natural lighting
• Clear light and shadow
• Your pet’s face clearly visible
• Preferably a closed mouth (no tongue or visible teeth)

Not sure which photo is best? No problem—just send us a few options and we’ll choose the one that works best for painting.

Yes!

Before the workshop, one of our artists will prepare a drawing template of your pet on your canvas. This allows you to focus on painting rather than worrying about sketching the outline yourself.

Absolutely! We love meeting our four-legged guests.

Just make sure your pet is:

• Comfortable around people and other animals
• Well-behaved
• Not disruptive during the workshop
• Not dangerous

In short: the kind of guest we’d happily invite again. 💛

Because every portrait is prepared individually, we need your photos at least 3 days before the workshop whenever possible.

If you book within those last 3 days, please send us your photos immediately after completing your booking so we have as much preparation time as possible.

Unfortunately, if we don’t receive your photos in time to prepare your personal template, we may not be able to accommodate you in that workshop, as preparing the template is an essential part of the experience.

If you’re ever unsure, just get in touch—we’ll always do our best to help. 💛
