Where Shimmer Meets Serenity

Picture this: a peaceful forest of slender trees, their reflections rippling in still water below, the canopy above alive with the warm glow of real gold leaf. This is one of those paintings that stops people in their tracks. You’ll use acrylics to build the moody, atmospheric backdrop – soft greys, deep blacks, and delicate washes – before layering on genuine gold leaf foil to create a canopy that absolutely glows.

The gold leaf technique is surprisingly satisfying to work with and gives your painting a luxurious, textured finish that you simply can’t achieve with paint alone. It’s the kind of piece that looks like it cost a fortune from a boutique gallery – except you made it, at a Paint and Sip, with a glass of something lovely in your hand. If you loved our Gold Leaf Owl night, you’ll absolutely adore this one. And if this is your first time, prepare to be amazed at what you can create.

A Wise-Eyed Stunner with Real Gold Leaf

This is the kind of piece that stops people in their tracks — a moody, magnificent owl with piercing amber eyes set against a soft grey-and-gold backdrop.

You'll learn the magic of applying real gold leaf, the same technique used in fine art galleries, to give your painting a luxurious shimmer that catches the light from across the room.

We'll walk you through capturing the owl's intense gaze and those soft, feathered textures step by easy step. Bold, atmospheric, and unbelievably elegant, this is one of our most-loved paintings of the year. Bring a friend who needs a statement piece for the lounge room — they'll be thanking you for weeks.

Wear Your Art on Your Sleeve (Well, Your Shoulder)

Forget painting on a canvas that sits on a shelf – this time, you’re creating a wearable masterpiece! Inspired by the dreamy, impressionist style of Claude Monet, you’ll hand-paint a gorgeous design onto your very own canvas tote bag. Think bold, beautiful brushstrokes, rich colours, and a finished piece that’s as practical as it is stunning.

Imagine rocking up to the shops, the beach, or brunch with a one-of-a-kind, hand-painted bag that you created yourself. Your friends will want to know where you got it – and you’ll get to say “I made it.” This is the ultimate Paint and Sip with a twist: art you can actually use, show off, and take everywhere. No experience necessary – just come ready to have a brilliant time.

An Aussie Icon Like You’ve Never Seen Him

Picture this: our most iconic, cheekiest Aussie bird — reimagined in an absolute riot of colour. Vibrant purples, electric blues, sunset pinks, and fiery oranges, all dancing together against a richly textured gold‑and‑emerald background. This isn’t your typical wildlife painting. It’s bold, it’s playful, and it’s the kind of statement piece that genuinely lights up every wall it lands on.

You’ll work with thick, buttery acrylics and beautifully loose, expressive brushwork — discovering how a handful of confident, well‑placed strokes can capture far more personality than fussy detailed work ever could. It’s wonderfully freeing, surprisingly easy, and exactly the kind of fun, fast‑paced session that makes paint and sip nights so addictive. So grab a mate, pour yourself a glass of something lovely, and prepare to walk out the door with a painting you genuinely can’t believe you made yourself.

A True Aussie Icon, Ready to Hang

This is a Paint and Sip experience with serious wow factor. You’ll paint a vibrant, contemporary portrait of Australia’s most beloved bird – the kookaburra – bursting with colour, character, and personality. Bold blues, warm earthy tones, and expressive brushwork come together to create a piece that’s modern, striking, and unmistakably Australian.

And here’s what makes this one extra special: your finished painting comes professionally framed and ready to hang on the wall the moment you get home. No trips to the framing shop, no waiting around – just a gallery-quality piece of art that you painted yourself, beautifully presented and ready to be admired. The framing is what takes this from a fun night out to a genuine keepsake, and it’s absolutely worth it.

Umbrellas, Rain, and Real Gold Leaf

There’s something a little magical about this one. Three figures stroll through a glistening city street under their umbrellas, while real gold leaf catches the light in shimmering bursts across the canvas. They’re like raindrops turned to treasure!

Atmospheric, romantic, and seriously elegant, it’s the kind of painting that stops people mid-conversation when they walk into your living room.

Don’t worry if you’ve never used gold leaf before. Our friendly artist will walk you through every step, from layering that moody background to applying those golden flashes that make the whole piece glow. By the end of the evening, you’ll have a gallery-worthy artwork to take home, and you’ll have had an absolute ball making it.

Meet the Cheekiest Llama in Town

Get ready to fall completely in love. This wonderfully scruffy llama — with his soft fluffy fur and a single pink flower clamped between his teeth — is pure mischief and charm in painting form. He’s the sort of cheeky character who’ll make you smile every single time you walk past him on the wall.

Painted in soft pastels and gentle washes of cream, sage, and blush, this piece is loose, expressive, and wonderfully forgiving. It’s perfect for a fun Saturday session with friends and a glass of bubbles.

Your artist for the night will show you how to build up that fluffy fur in playful brushstrokes and capture all the personality in his cheeky little face. You’ll head home with a one-of-a-kind painting that’s guaranteed to be a conversation starter.

Roll the Dice and Paint Like a Modern Master

This is the cheekiest night on the calendar — a dice-roll twist on a Picasso-style portrait where chance decides exactly how your masterpiece turns out.

Every shake of the dice picks a new eye, nose, mouth or hairstyle, so no two paintings in the room will look the same and yours will be uniquely, gloriously yours.

Expect bold black lines, juicy blocks of colour, and plenty of laughs as quirky faces start coming to life on every canvas. It's loose, playful, completely judgement-free, and a brilliant way to loosen up if perfectionism usually trips you up. Grab a drink, grab the dice, and roll yourself a one-of-a-kind modern art original.

Pink Feathers, Bold Brushwork, Big Energy

Step into the studio and meet the showstopper of the season — a knockout flamingo bursting with pinks, oranges, blues and a confident splash of palette-knife colour.

You'll learn how to layer rich, expressive brushstrokes to capture that elegant curve of neck and beak, then go wild with the loose, painterly background that makes this piece sing.

It's the kind of artwork that turns heads on a feature wall, and you'll surprise yourself with how much movement and life you can squeeze out of a brush in one evening. Bubbles in the glass, a flamingo on the easel, and a warm winter night in good company — this is paint and sip at its most fabulous.

Dive into Ocean Colour with Real, Tactile Texture

Slip beneath the waves with this gorgeous sea turtle gliding through sun-dappled blue water — your first proper play with texture medium. You'll mix acrylics with texture paste to build real ridges, ripples and shimmering highlights that you can actually feel with your fingertips.

We'll guide you through layering warm golds and ocean blues so the whole piece practically glows, and you'll pick up techniques you can use on every painting from here on.

It's hands-on, a little bit messy in the best way, and seriously rewarding. By the end of the night you'll have a wall-worthy painting that's full of depth, light, and beachy good vibes.

A Cuddly Aussie Icon, Painted with Heart

Say g'day to the cutest little furball we've ever put on canvas — a wide-eyed koala perched in a sun-dappled gum tree, painted with loose, impressionist-style strokes.

You'll learn how to build up soft, fluffy fur with simple layered brushwork, then bring the leafy background to life with cheerful dabs of green, blue and ochre.

It's a gentler, more relaxed night that's perfect if you love wildlife or just need an evening of pure feel-good painting. There's something genuinely uplifting about painting an animal this charming, and the finished piece looks fantastic in any Aussie home. Pour a wine, take your time, and fall a little bit in love with our cheeky native mate.

A Glowing Golden Moon Over Still Water

This one is pure atmosphere — a hauntingly beautiful lakeside scene with a glowing golden moon, silhouetted reeds, and a tiny bird perched in perfect stillness. You'll get hands-on with real gold leaf again, this time as the moon itself, with shimmering ripples dancing across the water below.

We'll show you how to build warm, moody backgrounds and use silhouettes for instant drama and storytelling. It's a slower, more contemplative night, the kind where the room hushes a little as everyone gets lost in their painting. You'll walk out with a piece that feels like a window into somewhere magical.

Two little birds and one big harvest moon

Picture a huge glowing moon rising behind a tangle of bare branches, with two little birds sharing the view. You'll build up all that gorgeous texture with bold, buttery strokes, so the moon almost seems to glow from the canvas. It's a moody, striking piece that looks stunning on any wall.

This one is pure relaxation with a glass in hand, and every painting turns out beautifully different. No experience needed, we'll walk you through every step.

The cheekiest cow you'll ever paint

Say hello to the studio's favourite cow, all big soft eyes and a face full of character. You'll have a giggle bringing her to life with loose, expressive strokes and warm, earthy colours. She's impossible to get “wrong”, so you can loosen up and enjoy every minute.

Bring your friends and your sense of humour, because this one is guaranteed to raise a smile. Absolutely no experience needed.

A cocktail, some sunnies, and one very fabulous flamingo

Meet the coolest bird in town, kicking back in her sunnies with a flower behind her ear and a coconut cocktail close by. You'll splash on bright, happy colours and enjoy every bit of that playful tropical energy. She's cheeky, colourful, and impossible not to love.

It's the perfect feel-good painting for a fun night out with friends. Come as you are, we'll show you everything.

Two swans, one perfect heart

These two elegant swans lean together to form a soft, romantic heart, and the whole piece just glows with colour. You'll blend dreamy pastels and rich brushwork to capture that gentle, loved-up feeling. It's a real showstopper, and one you'll be proud to hang.

Bring your partner, your bestie, or simply treat yourself to a lovely relaxing evening. Every skill level is welcome here.

Our cheeky Aussie mate, the kookaburra

There's nothing more Aussie than a kookaburra perched and ready for a laugh, and this fella is full of personality. You'll layer soft, textured strokes to capture his fluffy feathers and those lovely flashes of blue. He looks tricky, but you'll be amazed at what you can do.

It's a warm, easygoing session with a proper local favourite. Beginners are always welcome.

A spook-tacular black cat for the whole family

Get the whole family together for a frightfully fun Halloween afternoon at the studio. You'll paint a wide-eyed black cat under a glowing orange sky, complete with a cheeky little spider on its web. It's simple, playful, and perfect for painters big and small.

Come in your costume if you dare, and let's make some Halloween magic together. Suitable for all ages, no experience needed.

Pizza, Music and a Venetian Canal on Your Canvas

This one is a first for us and we could not be more excited. Beverley is bringing in pizza to share, putting the Italian music on, and turning the studio into a little corner of Italy for the night. You just bring your favourite Italian wine.

Just so nobody arrives hungry: the pizza is a snack to pick at rather than dinner, so have a proper meal before you come. Bring your own Italian nibbles along too if you'd like to add something to the table.

You'll paint a gorgeous Venetian canal scene, with a gondola drifting under a stone bridge and geraniums tumbling off every balcony. It's all warm terracotta, dusty pink and that beautiful green canal water. No experience needed at all, we'll guide you through every step.

Your Own Pet, on Your Own Canvas

Working in acrylics on canvas, Beverley will guide you through capturing the things that make your animal yours: the tilt of the head, the eyes, that one particular expression. She'll show you how to approach it step by step, so you get the best possible result whatever your skill level.

Here's the one thing to get right. Your photos need to reach Beverley several days beforehand, so send her a few clear shots of your pet on 0452 276 973. She hand sketches every pet onto its canvas before you arrive, and that preparation is what makes the difference.

Places are strictly limited to eight, because this class needs plenty of one to one attention. Bookings are single places rather than two for one.

Frida, Guacamole and a Studio Full of Colour

October's Paint and Sip is going full fiesta. Beverley is putting on guacamole and crispy tortilla chips, so bring along a bottle of Mexican wine and dress up in your best Mexican attire if you fancy it. It's nibbles rather than dinner, so eat beforehand, and feel free to bring your own snacks to share.

You'll paint a Frida Kahlo inspired portrait in acrylics, complete with a crown of fat pink roses, those famous bold brows and a pair of statement gold earrings. It's loose and colourful, painted in thick confident strokes, so the paint does half the work for you. Faces sound daunting, but we'll break hers down into simple shapes and guide you the whole way.

All materials are supplied and no experience is needed. Grab a friend, put your flowers in your hair, and let's make a night of it.

Matisse, French Cheese and a Very Cool Cat

You'll paint your own version of a Matisse: a black cat sitting in an open window, with a harbour and a sunset glowing behind it. The colours are the whole point here, hot pink, orange and turquoise, all laid on thick and bold. Matisse painted feeling rather than detail, which makes this a wonderfully forgiving picture to have a go at.

Beverley is providing French cheese and biscuits, so bring along a bottle of French wine and settle in. All paints, canvas and brushes are supplied, and no experience is needed at all.

Theme nights fill up fast, so book early. Grab a friend and make a night of it.

Big, Bold, Buttery Brushwork on Square Canvas

This is the night we hand you a palette knife and let you go big. You'll build up thick, buttery layers of acrylic on a square canvas, catching the light in a way flat paint never does. Up close it looks almost three-dimensional.

Sunflowers are a favourite, though florals, abstracts and coastal scenes all work beautifully with this technique. The finished piece looks gallery-ready. It's the sort of artwork people assume you bought.

Sculpted Clay That Doubles as Wall Art

Tonight we get our hands into proper pottery clay and make a hanging tile for your wall. You'll shape, texture and personalise every part of it, whether that's a coral reef, a scatter of barnacles or something straight out of your imagination. We'll fire it for you afterwards.

Then you'll paint and glaze it to finish (a small extra cost applies for the final firing). The result is handmade wall art with real depth, the kind of piece people lean in close to look at properly.

Tilt the Canvas and Watch the Magic Happen

Spend a couple of hours pouring, tilting and playing with colour while your canvas turns into something you'll want to hang up the moment it dries. Every pour behaves a little differently, so the surprise is half the fun. Cells, ribbons and soft blooms of colour appear as the paint settles.

Bring a friend along and make a pair of them. You don't need any experience at all, just a willingness to get slightly messy. We'll have everything set up and ready to go.

Turn Something Plain Into a One-Off

Bring along something you'd actually wear: a denim jacket, a tote bag, an old pair of jeans, a plain white tee. We'll set you up with fabric paints and help you turn it into a piece nobody else in the world owns. Big bold mandalas, hand lettering, florals, whatever suits you.

You don't need to be able to draw. We'll help you plan the whole design before a single drop of paint goes on, and you'll walk out wearing your own artwork.

Tilt the Canvas and Watch the Magic Happen

Spend a couple of hours pouring, tilting and playing with colour while your canvas turns into something you'll want to hang up the moment it dries. Every pour behaves a little differently, so the surprise is half the fun. Cells, ribbons and soft blooms of colour appear as the paint settles.

Bring a friend along and make a pair of them. You don't need any experience at all, just a willingness to get slightly messy. We'll have everything set up and ready to go.

Ancient Brushwork, Beautifully Simple

There's something wonderfully calming about painting with traditional Chinese brushes and ink. You'll learn how to hold the brush, load it with colour, and lay down the confident single strokes that turn into blossom, branches and leaves. It's slow, quiet and surprisingly addictive.

Every stroke counts in this style, which sounds daunting until you try it and find out how forgiving ink really is. You'll go home with a finished piece and a new appreciation for how much can be said with very little.

A Front Door Everyone Notices

Make a hand-painted Christmas welcome sign for your front door, the kind of thing you'll dig out of the cupboard every December. We'll help you with the design, the lettering and the finishing touches, right down to the ribbon. It's far easier than it looks.

Bring it out year after year and it quietly becomes part of the family Christmas. It also makes a lovely gift, if you can bear to part with it.
