Watercolour painting courses with lots of fun in Basel

This painting session is a love letter, not a likeness. Inspired by Frida Kahlo but never copying her outright, Fleurida blooms somewhere between portrait and feeling. A face emerges through heat and color, crowned with wild, abstract florals so lush they quietly steal the gaze — even the eyes stay just out of reach.

You’ll work with unapologetically vibrant, South American–inspired colors: sun-warmed reds, tropical greens, electric pinks, deep blues. The flowers are expressive and loose, more emotion than anatomy, layered boldly to create warmth, rhythm, and presence.

This isn’t about precision or perfection. It’s about confidence, color, and letting intuition lead the brush. No experience needed — just a willingness to paint boldly, embrace imperfection, and let the flowers speak louder than the lines.

Not a portrait.
Not a replica.
A tribute in full bloom. 🌺

Golden fish, flowing brushstrokes, and a splash of good fortune.

Step into the shimmering world of koi — the legendary fish that symbolise luck, prosperity, and long life. In this peaceful yet vibrant painting session, we’ll be creating our own graceful koi swimming through still waters, with flowing lines, glowing colours, and a whole lot of zen energy.

You’ll learn how to capture movement and shine with your brush, blending vibrant tones of orange, gold, and crimson to bring your koi to life. Whether your style is bold and graphic or soft and dreamy — these swimming jewels are your canvas to play.

This is one of those paintings that feels as calming to create as it is stunning to hang.

Abstract art. No rules.

Time to throw perfection out the window and lean into the mess. In this semi-guided abstract session, we’re mixing bold colours, big moves. You’ll play with layering, texture, and all kinds of expressive techniques until your canvas screams: “Yeah, I meant to do that.”
It’s not about knowing what you’re doing — it’s about trusting your creative gut and having a damn good time doing it.


✨ How PIE semi-guided events work
Ready for a painting session that gives you just the right mix of direction and freedom?
At our semi-guided events, 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

All you need to bring is your good vibes and curiosity! Whether you’re painting or getting crafty, you’ll leave with your own unique creation and plenty of great memories.

A workshop where the chaos is the point

Get ready to tilt, swirl, flip, and pour! In this hands-on 3-hour workshop, you’ll learn two of the most satisfying acrylic pouring techniques: Tree Ring and Flip Cup.

We’ll liquefy the paint, then let gravity, colour, and a bit of messy magic do the rest. With every tilt of the canvas, new patterns emerge — swirls, cells, waves, and very cool accidents.

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 the Workshop Works
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.


🥂 A Toast to Creativity*
We kick off every workshop with a complimentary welcome drink — the perfect way to settle in, connect with fellow creatives, and get inspired. Choose from:
• A soft drink or hot drink
• A glass of wine, prosecco, or beer
• Or our rotating Cocktail of the Week*

Want to treat yourself? Upgrade to one of our signature cocktails, mocktails, smoothies, or special drinks for just CHF 5–9.

Splash. Drip. Splatter. Total freedom.
The perfect stress release after a tense week.

No rules, no pressure — just pure expression. Our artists will guide you through techniques of action painting, layering, and movement so you can let go and enjoy the process.

Trust the chaos — and add gold.

In this relaxed, expressive session, you’ll create your own bold-yet-beautiful abstract piece using rich emerald greens, soft whites, and shimmering gold. With real gold leaf on the table, your artwork will catch the light in all the right ways — no two pieces alike.

There’s no final image to copy, no pressure to get it “right” — just flow, instinct, and colour. Layer shapes, play with contrast, and let your brush do what it wants. Whether you create calm minimalism or a textured explosion, this is all about letting go and glowing up.

Get into the zone. Take your time. And trust the process — it’s called Gilded Instinct for a reason.
