Here at Fleurieu Arthouse, paint and sip evenings are hosted and taught by professional artists and subject matters could be anything from a bunch of native flowers, to birds, portraits or landscapes.

Our next event will feature portrait painting and the subject this time round is the iconic Frida Kahlo - Mexican artist known the world over for her beautiful, bright paintings and unusual lifestyle.

Under the artist’s guidance, participants plan and create their own work of art - all materials are provided.

Paint and sip for birthdays, hen nights and other celebrations

Many people use paint and sip evenings as an escape from the usual mundane night out at the pub - and as a way to develop their painting skills of course. Others choose to come along simply because it’s great fun!

To this end, paint and sip makes an ideal experience for visitors to the region or indeed, for groups looking to bond over a shared event. This is why paint and sip is a popular choice for hen parties or for birthday parties with a difference!

Creative hen nights or birthday celebrations are growing in popularity as many people want to share a fun, relaxing and memorable experience with their closest friends or family - and what could be better than time spent with a glass of local wine, in a beautiful and inspiring environment whilst learning new skills together?

During the evening, the artist will teach you about composition, form and colour theory so that your finished painting will have a touch of the professional about it. Guiding participants through each stage of their painting, the teacher keeps a watchful eye on the progress of work, assisting where needed but always allowing the individual personalities of students to shine through in their finished pieces.
