What is a PIE workshop?
A PIE workshop is like an evening with friends - only more creative, more colourful and with lots of colour. The focus of our two- to three-hour workshops 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.

Action Painting
Feel First, Paint Second: A PIE Workshop
- Workshop
- Beginner
- PIE Action Painting Studio Basel
- 2,5 hours
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

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.

Drift, glow, and dive deep.
A majestic whale gliding through quiet waters, as golden rays of sunlight reach down from above — connecting two worlds in one soft, luminous moment.
In this watercolour session, we’ll explore the magic of transparency and light, using gentle washes and flowing layers to bring this underwater scene to life. Think soft gradients, diffused light, and that weightless feeling where everything moves slowly and effortlessly.
Watercolour is the perfect medium for this piece — fluid, atmospheric, and just a little bit dreamy.

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
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.
At the end, we bring everyone together for a group photo — your finished piece, great vibes.

Pouring Acrylics (Dutch Pour, Kiss Pour)
Pour. Tilt. Wow – A PIE Workshop
- Workshop
- Beginner
- PIE Action Painting Studio Basel
- 2,5 hours
Up to 20% discount for Members
A workshop where the chaos is the point.
Get ready to pour and blow! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn two of the more advanced and most satisfying acrylic pouring techniques: Dutch Pour & Kiss Pour. (Yes, is the one where you`ll use a blowdryer to move the paint accross the surface!)
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.
✨ 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.

Brushes out, vibes on — we’re heading to Monet’s garden.
In this vibrant acrylic session, we’ll dive headfirst into the iconic world of Claude Monet’s water lilies — minus the stuffy museum voice. Think soft petals, bold colour, dreamy reflections and the kind of loose, expressive brushwork that lets you paint what you feel, not just what you see.
You’ll learn how to blend, dab, layer, and play with light — all while creating your own version of this impressionist masterpiece. Classic or totally reimagined? Your pond, your rules.
Perfect for beginners, flower fans, and anyone who’s ever wanted to say, “Oh that? I painted it. It’s my Monet.”

Swirls. Gold. Curls. And that one tilted head you’ve definitely seen on a mug somewhere.
In this Klimt-inspired painting session, we’re diving into one of his most beautiful (and quietly powerful) works: Mother and Child from The Three Ages of Woman. You’ll learn how to recreate the dreamy figures, add your own twist, and work with patterns, symbolism, and a touch of that famous Klimt glow.
It’s sweet, it’s stylish, and honestly kind of emotional (in the best way). No stress. No pressure. Just you, some colour, and a chance to paint a modern tribute to one of the greats.
Bonus points for anyone who adds gold.

Soft. Lush. A little bit indulgent.
A blooming peony in peach and pink — melting almost seamlessly into a background of the same dreamy tones.
In this still life session, it’s all about letting go and trusting your brush. We’ll work with expressive strokes and soft layering to capture the fullness and movement of the flower, while gently guiding the shape so it sits just right in perspective.
Think rich, glowing colours that feel both vibrant and refined — tones that blend into each other, creating depth without ever feeling heavy. It’s loose, elegant, and quietly striking.
A painting that feels like a soft moment — and looks even better the longer you linger on it. 🌸

Lady of The lake
Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event
- Workshop
- Beginner
- PIE Action Painting Studio Basel
- 2.5 Hours
Up to 20% discount for Members
Misty greens, quiet water, and a forest that feels almost enchanted.
Step into a serene, mystical landscape where a hidden lake rests between mossy rocks and dense foliage. This painting is all about exploring the richness of green — mixing a wide range of tones, from deep forest hues to soft, glowing highlights, to create a scene that feels alive, atmospheric, and full of depth.
We’ll work in multiple layers to slowly build the landscape, giving the forest and water a sense of space and immersion. You’ll learn how to create depth through colour variation, transparency, and texture — letting each layer add to the mood and mystery of the scene.
Using a mix of tools like palette knife, brush, and sponge, we’ll experiment with different techniques to bring the environment to life: textured foliage, soft moss on rocks, and shimmering reflections across the water’s surface.
It’s a process of building, blending, and discovering — where every shade of green adds to a calm, immersive world that feels both real and dreamlike.
✨ 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.

A Textured Morning by The Sea
Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event
- Workshop
- Beginner
- PIE Creative Café Zürich
- 2.5 Hours
Up to 20% discount for Members
The sea was already awake, moving slowly.
This is a place you return to in memory — solid, calm, built layer by layer. A reminder that not everything needs to be light or perfect to be beautiful. Some things are meant to be felt, not thinned down.
In this textured painting session, we’ll work with modelling paste to create depth, structure, and a truly tactile landscape. You’ll learn how to effortlessly blend colour into the paste itself and apply it in different ways across the canvas, building surfaces that feel almost sculptural.
We’ll explore how to mix beautiful muted yet vibrant tones inspired by a Northern European landscape — atmospheric, cool, and quietly luminous rather than Mediterranean brightness. You’ll discover how subtle colour shifts and layered texture can create mood, distance, and emotional depth, turning the surface into something you can almost step into.
