Lean back. Breathe out. Let it sway.
This one’s for slow moods and faraway places — where towering palm trees stretch endlessly into a hazy sky, and soft flamingo-pink clouds drift through a muted grey-blue landscape.
In this oil painting session, we’ll create a scene that feels both calm and exotic — working with subtle, desaturated colours that somehow still feel fresh, warm, and full of life. Think tall, elegant palms in olive greens, gentle contrasts, and a palette that glows quietly rather than loudly.
This is a perfect entry into oil painting — simple, relaxed, and hands-on. You’ll get a feel for the material, explore how colours blend and move, and build your painting step by step without overthinking it.
No pressure, no perfection — just an easy, atmospheric piece that takes you somewhere else. 🌴

A refreshing Aperol Spritz, captured at its most vibrant and inviting — the signature taste of a perfect summer moment, reimagined in paint.
In this oil painting session, you’ll create a beautifully lit still life of a full, sparkling glass of Aperol Spritz, set against a dreamy, slushy background of exotic colour. A delicate purple hibiscus flower adds an elegant, tropical contrast, while soft light dances across the glass, ice, and bubbles, bringing the entire scene to life.
The focus of this workshop is learning how to paint convincing reflections and transparency — how to make glass look so real that you almost want to reach out and take a sip. You’ll explore how light interacts with liquid, how highlights define form, and how subtle colour shifts can transform a simple object into something luminous and alive.
Step by step, you’ll be guided through building depth, capturing shine, and balancing colour and softness in a way that makes your painting feel fresh, atmospheric, and irresistibly drinkable.

Prince Charming 🐸
Small, green, and quietly stealing the spotlight.
In this oil painting session, we capture a tiny frog resting beneath a blooming water lily, nestled on a floating lily pad. Surrounded by soft reflections and lush vegetation, this scene is all about calm, charm, and that slightly magical feeling of a hidden pond moment.
This painting is a true celebration of green — in all its variations. You’ll learn how to mix dozens of different green tones, from deep, cool shades to vibrant, glowing highlights, and how to balance them with subtle purples from the water lily to create harmony and contrast.
With expressive brushwork at the core, you’ll explore how to build texture, shape, and softness using oil paint in a loose, confident way. From the smooth surface of the water to the delicate petals above and the character of our little frog, each element comes together through layered, intuitive strokes.
Perfect for beginners and anyone in love with the colour green, this session is about discovering how rich, playful, and full of life a single colour palette can be — and bringing your own version of this charming little scene to life.

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. 🍸

Glowing grapes. Autumn light. Drama in every shadow.
Ever wanted to paint something that looks like an Old Master but feels totally doable? This is your chance.
In this oil painting session, you’ll capture a bunch of rich, red grapes basking in warm, golden light — playing with deep shadows, rich tones, and that magical glow only oil paint can give.
We’ll walk you through blending velvety reds, layering soft highlights, and shaping those plump grapes until they look ready to pluck. No pressure, no art snobbery, just deliciously moody colour play.
Perfect for beginners, texture lovers, and anyone who wants a little taste of that golden-hour magic on canvas.
✨ How PIE 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 — nothing overwhelming, just getting you comfortable and ready to play.
Then the fun really begins. You’ll be guided step by step through the painting process, with plenty of room to play, experiment, and make it your own. Sip your drink, enjoy the moment, and let the creativity flow.
At the end, we bring everyone together for a group photo — your finished piece, great vibes.
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
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.
Oil Painting - Safety Info
In our oil painting workshops we use turpentine, which produces strong vapours and must be handled with care. For this reason, the workshop is recommended for guests aged 15+ and not suitable during pregnancy or for children.
We provide gloves for safe painting, and the studio is well ventilated to ensure a comfortable environment. If you have any concerns, our instructors are happy to help.
🖼️ Canvas Size & Upgrades
Your ticket includes a 30 x 40 cm canvas, which you can upgrade to a larger one (40x50cm) or even a round one (Ø 40 cm) - just choose the option when booking your ticket, or decide spontaneously at the workshop.

FAQs - Everything you need to know about urban sketching
Urban sketching means: just get started! We'll show you techniques for sketching quickly and expressively - with simple lines, light and shadow.
Urban sketching is spontaneous sketching on location - be it a street café, a market or the skyline of your city. It's about the mood, not perfection.
We recommend handy sketchbooks with sturdy paper that fit easily in your bag - perfect for travelling!
Smooth but hard-wearing paper that can withstand both fineliner and watercolours works best.
Urban sketching was created by Gabriel Campanario, a Spanish draughtsman, and is now a worldwide movement.
