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

Pouring Acrylics (Tree Ring & Flip Cup)
- Workshop
- Beginner
- PIE Action Painting Studio Zürich
- 2,5 Hours
Up to 20% discount for Members
A workshop where the chaos is the point.
Get ready to tilt, swirl, flip, and pour! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn two of the most satisfying acrylic pouring techniques: Tree Ring and Flip Cup.
Acrylic pouring is all about letting the paint do its thing. It’s unpredictable, a little messy, and incredibly satisfying.
Instead of brushes, you’ll work with fluid acrylics, tilting, layering, and guiding the movement across your canvas to create organic patterns, soft blends, and those signature “cells” that make every piece feel alive.
You’ll combine colours in a way that creates contrast and harmony at the same time, learning how different densities interact and how small shifts in movement can completely transform the result. From smooth, flowing gradients to bold, marbled effects — no two pours ever turn out the same.
You’ll create 3 unique artworks on 30 × 30 cm canvases, and yes:
It’ll look like you totally meant to do that.
Perfect for beginners, mess-lovers, abstract enthusiasts, and anyone who secretly wants to fling paint around without judgement.
✨ How PIE Pouring Workshops Runs
Acrylic Pouring is one of the most mesmerising – and yes, also one of the messiest – ways to paint. If you’ve ever fallen into the endless stream of pouring videos online, you’ll know how unpredictable (and sometimes frustrating) it can be to figure it out on your own.
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 pouring materials and techniques — 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 paints to the right consistency, control the flow, and use different pouring techniques without creating unnecessary chaos.
The goal isn’t to take away the magic of experimentation, but to give you a shortcut to the satisfying part — where colours flow, react, and create beautiful, organic patterns. Less guesswork, less mess, and more time to actually enjoy this fluid, almost hypnotic way of painting.
It’s one of those workshops where it’s very hard to get it “wrong.” Almost anything you do will lead to interesting and beautiful results, which makes it especially rewarding and forgiving. Because of this, it’s perfect for complete beginners who have never worked with acrylic paint before.
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.

See beyond the flower — and turn it into pure colour and feeling.
In this oil painting workshop, we zoom in on a red parrot flower, inspired by Georgia O’Keeffe’s iconic way of transforming flowers into bold, enlarged worlds of colour and form - sensual, expressive, and almost abstract.
The focus of this session is on colour depth and emotional expression. You’ll work with a rich spectrum of red tones, learning how to mix, layer, and refine colour to create vibrant variation and subtle shifts in hue. We’ll also explore blending techniques, soft transitions, and how to smooth edges to create a flowing, almost dreamlike composition.
This is a deeply sensory painting experience — elegant, expressive, and open. While it carries a soft, feminine energy, it is absolutely for everyone. All genders are warmly welcome to create their own interpretation of this iconic, O’Keeffe-inspired floral world.
You’ll leave with a striking, close-up floral masterpiece that feels both powerful and poetic — a study in colour, emotion, and presence.

Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event

- 2.5 hours
Up to 20% discount for Members
Sip, swirl, and let it shimmer — this time in oil.
Two cocktails clinking in the glow of summer — olives, cherries, citrus slices, and colours that feel like golden hour captured in glass. In this oil painting session, we take a very similar playful and elegant subject, but explore it through the richness and depth of oils, building luminous layers and soft transitions that bring the scene to life.
You’ll learn how to create transparent effects in glass using oil techniques — how to suggest liquid, reflection, and refraction without over-defining every detail. We’ll also explore how to build that signature shiny, glittering surface of a cocktail glass, where light breaks, bends, and sparkles across curves and edges.
Through layering, blending, and controlled brushwork, you’ll develop soft reflections and subtle colour shifts that make the glasses feel almost tangible. It’s all about capturing that balance between clarity and atmosphere — letting the paint stay fluid, luminous, and alive.
Bright, summery, and effortlessly chic — a glowing cocktail moment, reimagined in oils. 🍸

The bloom is real.
High up in the Umbrian hills, there’s a place where wildflowers don’t just grow — they explode across the land in waves of red, yellow, violet and white. Welcome to Castelluccio di Norcia, home of the Fioritura — a yearly floral phenomenon that turns the landscape into one giant, breathtaking canvas.
In this bold, colorful painting session, we’re capturing the essence of that explosion — the vibrant fields, the soft geometry of the plains, the contrast of nature’s palette with that tiny village on top of it all.
You’ll learn to layer color, add texture, and use contrast to recreate this jaw-dropping view — no experience necessary. Just bring your love of landscape, color, and a little Italian flair.
This isn’t painting flowers in a vase — this is painting a valley in bloom.

Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event

A wild abstract painting session full of colour, chaos, and satisfying texture.
Who needs brushes when you’ve got a spatula, a mountain of modelling paste, and a whole mood to express?
In this bold, all-in painting session, you’ll layer, swipe, and sculpt your way into pure colour play — no plan, no pressure, just bold marks and thick textures that practically stand off the canvas.
We’ll work point by point, swipe by swipe, building up vibrant patterns and punchy colour fields that shift as you move. It’s a little pointillist, a little sculptural, and totally freeing.
Expect music, mess, and moments of accidental brilliance. This one’s for anyone who’s ever wanted to stop thinking and just create.
More colour. More texture. More joy.
Bring the energy — we’ve got the paste.
✨ How PIE Semi-Guided Workshops Run
You arrive, take a breath, pick your welcome drink and settle into your spot at the table where the magic will happen. 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 — 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.
Then the fun really begins. Our instructors 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.

Textured Dreamscapes I.

Landscapes? More like dreamscapes. Let’s get surreal — in texture.
Ready to take your imagination one step further? In this textured edition of our dreamscapes, we move beyond the flat surface and start building dimension into your world. Using acrylic paint, modelling paste, sponge, and palette knife, you’ll create surreal landscapes that don’t just look deep — they feel deep.
Think shifting skies, floating forms, glowing colours, and layered structures that play with perspective. You’ll learn how to build up surfaces, combine abstract and semi-real elements, and use texture to guide the eye through space — reinforcing depth while keeping that dreamy, intuitive flow.
This isn’t about painting what’s “real” — it’s about constructing what feels real to you, layer by layer.
