What we will be doing
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 paint on high-quality 300 g mixed media paper. If you’d like to upgrade to a canvas (perfect for framing or exhibiting), please make sure to include this add-on when selecting your ticket type.

Watercolor: light, flowing, and sometimes… totally unpredictable.
That’s exactly what makes it so exciting.
In this 4-week course, you’ll explore the basics of painting with watercolor — one of the most loved (and sometimes feared) mediums in the art world. 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 control while 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.
By the end, you’ll have the skills to start painting with confidence — and a whole new appreciation for this playful, flowing medium.
✏️ What to Expect
- Step-by-step weekly guidance from a professional artist
- Live demonstrations to introduce each technique
- Time to practise and experiment with each method
- A relaxed, supportive space where you can ask questions and explore your style
🧠 What You’ll Learn
- Core watercolor techniques: wet-on-wet, wet-on-dry, layering & more
- How to build light, depth, and texture with transparent layers
- Controlling water and pigment flow
- Lifting and correcting techniques
- How to balance planning with playful exploration
🎁 What’s Included
We provide everything you need:
- Watercolor paper, paints, brushes & tools
- Full use of our professional studio and materials
Just bring your curiosity — we’ll take care of the rest.
🤔 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 & 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.

Van Gogh… but make it glow.
You know the painting. Now turn up the colour, crank the contrast, and let the stars trip out a little.
In this bold remix of Van Gogh’s Starry Night, we’re keeping the iconic swirls — but lighting up the sky with fluorescent pinks, greens, blues, and purples that’ll make your canvas sing (or at least vibe).
This one’s all about colour play, flowy lines, and total freedom.
No experience needed — just bring your wild side and your love for all things starry, swirly, and slightly surreal.
✨ How PIE Workshops Run

Sculpt. Shape. Sunbathe. A beach day on canvas.
In this semi-guided textured event, we’re going overhead — your view of the seaside from above. With modelling paste and paint, you’ll learn to shape foamy waves, sandy shores, and scatter tiny umbrellas with sunbathers below. Think playful details, summer vibes, and a splash of humour worked into every stroke.
No experience needed — just a taste for fun, bright colours, and beachy imagination. You’ll leave with a holiday scene that’s tactile, vibrant, and full of summer joy.
✨ How PIE Semi-Guided Workshops Run
Ready for a painting session that gives you just the right mix of direction and freedom?
At our semi-guided workshops, you get a clear theme and technique to start with – think of them as your creative launchpad. From there, it’s all about what you do with it.
Our artist guides are there to show you the essentials, share tips, and keep you inspired… but the real magic happens when you dive into your own creative waters ;) Follow the guidance closely or take a playful detour – both paths are perfect.
It’s the ideal balance of support and self-expression: enough structure to feel confident, enough freedom to surprise yourself. A little deeper, a little more intentional, and always a lot of fun.
No prior experience? No problem! We provide everything:
- A chill, friendly atmosphere
- All the necessary art supplies
- Pre-prepared templates
- Step-by-step guidance from our instructors

Chamomile in Bloom: Texture, Light & Depth
This one is gonna be a beautiful painting session dedicated to our favourite, the chamomile flower. This time, we’ll be working with textured paste and the palette knife as our second protagonist.
You will learn how to shape the simple yet iconic chamomile petals, placing them in perspective to create a real sense of depth and movement. Along the way, we’ll also explore the basics of colour mixing, focusing on achieving those vibrant, high-contrast harmonies between warm yellows and cool blues.
A tactile, expressive session where texture, light, and colour come together to bring the chamomile to life.

Action Painting, Neon Edition
Feel First, Paint Second: A PIE Workshop

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
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.
