What is a PIE event?
A PIE event is like an evening with friends - only more creative, more colourful and with lots of colour. The focus of our two- to three-hour events in Switzerland is not on the perfect result, but on the experience - guided step by step by our fun course leaders. Whether you paint the same motif or create a large picture together - you create your own individual work. Whether you're a beginner or a pro, our Paint & Sip will help you get creative in a chilled-out atmosphere. We provide the relaxed atmosphere free of charge.

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.

✨ 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.

Pour Me a Meadow
Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event
- PIE Event
- Beginner
- PIE Basel
- 2.5 Hours
Up to 20% discount for Members
A lush, expressive painting session that’s equal parts sunset, petals, and joyful chaos.
It’s the meadow from a frog’s-eye view — stems towering overhead, flowers leaning into the last pink light of the day.
In this vibrant autumn-inspired session, you’ll capture a field that’s wild, textured, and just a little bit magical: grasses swaying, blooms bursting, and a soft, glowing sky after sunset.
And we won’t stop at brushwork — this is a playground for every technique. You’ll dribble, flick, pour, sizzle, and sprinkle paint to create depth, movement, and a touch of contemporary edge. Each layer adds richness, making your meadow feel like it’s still swaying in the evening breeze.
Bold blooms, a pink-tinged sky, and a whole lot of painterly freedom.
Come for the flowers. Stay for the glorious mess.

Paint Your Pet
Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event
- PIE Event
- Beginner
- PIE Basel
- 2.5 Stunden
Up to 20% discount for Members
A portrait session for devoted humans and the four-legged icons they adore.
Your pet is already a star — now it’s time to immortalise them in paint.
In this custom, joy-filled session, you’ll create a one-of-a-kind portrait of your beloved animal (real, imagined, or emotionally adopted). Think soulful eyes, majestic fluff, and maybe a tiny crown or a glass of wine in paw — because obviously.
After you book, you’ll send us a few photos of your pet. Our artist will choose the most paint-worthy one and prepare a drawing template for you, so when you show up, the canvas (or plate!) is ready and waiting. Yes — you can also choose to paint your pet onto a ceramic plate. Because what’s better than eating spaghetti off your dog’s face? Nothing.
With step-by-step guidance and space for your weirdest, cutest ideas, this session is part portrait, part love letter, and 100% celebration.
No experience needed — just a good pet photo and a little flair.

Intuitive Painting
Feel First, Paint Second: A PIE Workshop
- Workshop
- Beginner
- PIE Zürich
- 3 hours
Up to 20% discount for Members
a.k.a. Abstract Improvisation – let it flow, not fit.
This isn’t about “getting it right.”
This is about letting go, following your instinct, and making something raw, bold, weird, calming, chaotic — or all of the above.
In this intuitive abstract painting workshop, we swap technique for trust, and outcomes for play. No fixed subject, no rules — just a big canvas, a pile of tools, and your curiosity in the driver’s seat. Whether you leave with a masterpiece or a glorious mess, the point is: you showed up, you created, and you felt something.
We’ll set the mood with a specially curated playlist of meditative + emotionally expressive tracks, and you’ll get access to all the good stuff: rollers, brushes, spatulas, a protective suit (yes, really), and a generous 40 × 50 cm canvas to start. Want to go bigger? You can upgrade when booking – or decide on the spot.
Guidance is there if you want it — but your brush, your vibe, your call.
🎨 Canvas info:
✓ 40 × 50 cm included
→ 60 × 80 cm: + CHF 10
→ 80 × 100 cm: + CHF 30
→ 100 × 120 cm: + CHF 60
Extra canvases can also be purchased on-site.
