Painting: "Autumn Pumpkin" by Local Artists and Jessa founder of Paint Chill Co  


Paint n Sip Bar Event "Birdy"

Heather Brann

Such a good night learning a new skill, some of us are eyeing up the waterfall!!

Mel Jenkins

Booked paint and chill as a surprise for my friend on her birthday…. We had a great evening, the artist in charge was lovely, very helpful and had a giggle with us when I painted a rather interesting looking bird haha! Would highly recommend and plan on booking another one :) thank you!

Rebeca Williams

Fabulous session! My friends and I had such a good time. I would definitely recommend this as something different to do. It was lots of fun and the teacher was very welcoming and encouraging! 

Unfortunately we didn’t really like the venue Outside-In so maybe next time I would pick a session which is run somewhere else. 

Fran  Jenkins

It was great, always lovely to 'lose yourself' in the painting and see it develop following the excellent step by step instructions, thank you

Claire Bower-Parker

First time with Mavis, but painted with Rhian before. Throughly good evening for all and will be back - pumpkin was probably the hardest we’ve done (I’ve done 5 now). 

Sarah Elkin

Really enjoyed this, I find them so therapeutic 

Susan  Parkinson 

Brilliant night out with my friends. Great space to learn to paint a pumpkin and have a glass of vino. 

Jo Beaton

This was my second visit to paint and sip had such a fun night . The teaching was amazing and easy to follow and I left with a beautiful pumpkin canvas which I created ❤️Thank you will definitely come to another one.

Jordan knight

AMAZING TIME!! came away with a painting that myself & my friend were really happy with. Such a fantastic night. I’d 100% recommend to anyone. 

Bring in Autumn with this beautiful easy to follow painting.

Painting: "Chameleon" by Local Artists and Jessa, founder of Paint Chill Co


Paint n Sip Bar Event "Chameleon"

Emma Benson

Was a lot of fun, the teacher was great, spoke clearly and came and gave pointers if needed, it was a nice relaxed group of people.
Lovely space, although it did get a little dark once the sun went down. 

We found it trickier than expected, we thought the outline was going to be on the canvas, lol

But would definitely go again! 

Thanks! 

Marina Pomeroy 

I went along to my first event last night and it was a very enjoyable experience. Rian made me feel welcome and was a great instructor. The evening was relaxed and fun and I came away with my picture of a chameleon x

Emily  Astbury 

Loved painting the chameleon! Turned out better than expected. Good drinks and company too 😁 would definitely do this again. 

Daniela Rangel

Thomas Chappell

I booked this out for a works team night out, after the team very kindly managed to squeeze us in! We had a great time and was highly commended by my colleagues and described as one of our best team nights out! 

Marissa Biggs

Love coming to do the painting second time doing it, would like to know who paints the original one we copy though as not the instructor be nice if it was her artwork in the first place

Carina Turner

Fun way to spend an evening, made to feel welcome, good venue

Paint fun and free with our charming chameleon design. The best way to enjoy a night out in Portsmouth.

Painting: "Waterfall" by local Artists and Jessa, Founder of Paint Chill Co


Paint n Sip Bar Event "Waterfall"

Zoe  Gardner

Had a wonderful time, only downful was the layout was poor compared to previous painting I have attended in the still and west. It did make it difficult to see anything from where we were sat, but the artist did come round the room with the painting

Lucy Stone

I went to this with a few friends and it was great. I have never painted as an adult, so had no idea how my painting would turn out, but I was pretty chuffed with it. Will be booking again.

Karin Garrad

Lesley Swann

The host was fabulous and so easy to follow each step of the painting.
I really enjoyed learning about painting techniques, how to brushes at different angles and strokes.
The waterfall was a pleasure to paint, especially the cascading water on the rocks and small foliage.

Leica Sancto

I thoroughly enjoy my paint chill evenings. Such a lovely way to learn a new skill & take home your own canvas. I only wish it was a little longer as the second session can feel a little rushed but I guess it is getting late by then. Thoroughly enjoy the venue as you can have a drink whilst you paint & chat to your friends or people next to you so it’s very sociable & relaxed. I’ve just booked another at The Alchemist. Thoroughly recommend 😁

Anne Bevis 

Good evening I was a little sceptical as have done art before, wasn’t that keen on the waterfall piece I was attending but all in all a great location, and fun ! 

Maggie Morris

Our host Daisy Tomlin was amazing and although I don’t feel I have any artistic flair she was encouraging and complimentary and I had a lovely experience.  Highly recommend this for a fun evening.

Clare Shann

Had a great time with Paint and Chill at the Alchemist, Gunwharf. Made a great date night for me and the hubby and would highly recommend it! 

Angela Black

Really fun! Attended to try out painting and was very beginner friendly, RH talked everyone through the steps in a really accessible way. Was quite proud of the finished result even though I've never picked up a paintbrush before 🥰

Painting: "Colourful Eye" by Local Artists and Jessa, founder of Paint Chill Co


Paint n Sip Bar Event "Colourful Eye"

Suzy Haskell

Really enjoyed painting the colourful eye, so many colours blending together and it lways amazes me how good the finished product is. Trust the process they say and it works!

Susan Elvin

I was very disappointed with the ‘’ Colourful Eye’’ event I attended, the instructor giving the class showed a lack of engagement with the group and was at one point quite  dismissive to a participants question about how they should approach doing a particular part of the painting. 
She gave no instruction in the technique of using the brushes or paints and failed to inject a sense of fun to the evening. 
I was looking forward to doing more events but given my disappointment I won’t be making any more bookings with 
Paint n Sip 

Helen Warne

Absolutely brilliant class, lovely teacher and great fun! Will definitely be back! 

Nishal Patel

Always a great evening. Really enjoyed painting the eye. And Drinks & giggles with friends. Can't wait till the next one.  

Tracey Dean

Loved the whole evening. At school my painting was very bad. The experience has given me the confidence to paint my own pictures. I have given them as gifts and they have been gratefully received.

Kerry West

Absolutely loved my second session at Paint & Chill! Host was lovely and friendly and explained everything so well including the techniques to get the desired look! Absolutely recommend and will definitely be back for a third time!

Jane  Sheldrake 

Brilliant evening! First time painted since school and will definitely do again 

Karen Webb

Lovely evening, great interaction with everyone , fabulous class , I have attended many Paint and Chill classes , my only disappointment was the canvas size has reduced in size to all my previous sessions. 

Kerry Burridge

Had such a brilliant evening with friends. Everything was provided for you and the step by step instructions by the lady leading the workshop were very informative and aloud you to put your own creative spin on your piece of artwork.
An evening of creativity and laughs and great company what more could you ask for. Brilliant 👏 

Teresa jeffery

Great fun night. 
Whilst daunting to see a blank canvas  initially, the instruction was so clear and supportive, we all felt a huge sense of achievement with our masterpieces 

Carly Arnold

Loved this! Such a relaxing, fun evening! Easy to follow instructions with the ability to be as creative as you like! Would definitely go again!

Sarah Bateman

Great painting experience ! The whole process was well explained and fun.

Joanne Bennett

Excellent evening learning, wonderful teachers, definite must do for anyone! 

Melanie Tipple

I would highly recommend this - I went with a group of friends and painted ‘the eye’. We all had such a brilliant time, the painter and the assistant were so lovely and helpful and it was in such a great location with all the staff really happy to help.
Our group had a range of people that had painted before and those that didn’t have a clue and we all came out with some great artwork. Everyone enjoyed themselves and we all said we want to do it again - highly recommended.

Emma Cooper

A fantastic class. Great fun and so wonderful to come away with my own piece of art. 

Susan Ramshaw

Such a fun and enjoyable evening and I even came home with a picture of be proud to put on the wall, great support and I’ve already booked for my next one! Thank you all so much for bringing out the hidden artist in me 

Neat Stone

I really enjoy Paint and Chill evenings, and have had previous great experience, but for me you crammed too many people around the table, making it difficult and uncomfortable. 
You have difficulty doing the ‘sip’ part of paint and sip as nowhere to put your drink, & this latest event we were all literally shoulder to shoulder, giving no space at all 

It’s a shame as I enjoyed the ‘eye’ painting. 

I will probably not be returning to an event at this venue for that reason. 

Michelle Callow McStravick

Very enjoyable evening and educational too we had great fun thank you 

Ramona Kraus

I have had a fabulous evening and thoroughly enjoyed it. Would definitely go again.

Jo Evans

Yet again wonderful painting evening with the lovely Rhiann. Rhiann is so supportive and helpful for all levels and abilities especially those, like me, that are complete beginners and also perfectionists!

Paint n Sip Bar Event "Pink Flamingo"

Miriam Cope

A great evening. Lovely friendly atmosphere. Can't wait to sign up for the next event. 

Susan Buckingham

Always a great fun night out.  My Son and I have been to a few now.  We always look forward to it.

Claire Davis

We all enjoyed the evening and are delighted with our paintings. We never thought we would have achieved what we did. 

Stephanie Cummins

Had such a fantastic evening! Was a little apprehensive as not an artistic bone in my body but needn't have worried, thoroughly enjoyed it! 

Rachel Sadler

This was my first experience of paint n sip. It is a great idea, and such a different way to spend your evening.  The teacher Rhian was very patient, helpful and friendly. We are going again this evening! Highly recommend!

Fay Page

Thank you so much!! We had such a fantastic evening celebrating my mum and sisters birthdays. I love my flamingo so much and will be hanging it with pride. We’ll definitely be back to add to the collection. 

Marie  Bligh

What a wonderful evening! So good I have booked up again for the following  week! 

Mark Jones

What a fantastic experience, something I thought I could never do. Was brilliant and so professional. Thank you 

Joy Sealey

Fun workshop. Well run and easy to follow. Nice relaxed atmosphere 

Sarah Wyatt

Loved doing the flamingo painting the step by step really is great  and so relaxing at the same time, you really do just focus on what your psi tint and nothing else totally recommend and great to  do with a friend.

Mrs Hayley Warren

leeanne weeks

Great evening, never been an artist but the step by step talk through was so helpful... We can't wait to book again 

Mandy Robinson

Such a fun evening. I was a bit anxious as I cannot draw or paint, but we were talked through the process and Eric the Flamingo is quite handsome. It was fun and relaxing and a lovely time spent with great people.


Lisa Uren 

Brilliant Fun. Great teacher.
I couldn't believe how good the end results were - speaking as somebody who didn't think they were any good at art!

Karen Warren

I had such an amazing night celebrating with the hen & her party!  We laughed more than expected and we created masterpieces!  Didbt think we’d be able to achieve anything!  The host was amazing too.  

Liz Craig

Such a lovely evening! I had bad experiences doing art at school so I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this. Rhian was a great teacher and everyone went away with a lovely painting. Thank you!

Anna Frances-Eley

Paint n sip was so relaxing, creative and fun! I think I will need to book another one. The artist kept to exactly the right pace and I created a wonderful flamingo picture. Perfect for my friends hen do 🥰🦩

Vicky Rogers

Great evening with a good friend and two lovely flamingos to take home

Antony Potts

A really great night. I'm not the most artistic of people, but my painting looks as it should. The instructor went through everything in a measured way that was both fun and informative.
I would highly recommend

Linda Orvis

Sarah  Boxall 

Great class snd teacher as always.  Hope you organise another brunch one at Alchemist again   love this 

JeanetteJeanette Cloete

This is the 4th one we’ve done and we absolutely love it every time . Have decided that it’s going to be a monthly thing as it’s so much fun!

Kathryn  May

What a great night. Teacher was really good 

Rachael Hillebrandt

I took my niece for her 40th birthday present as she has a love for 🦩We had a fab time 
would highly recommend the teacher made it so much easier than I thought it would be 😊

Natasha Gjorevska

Excellent experience! Loved every minute of it and I made a great flamingo painting. I wasn't expecting that I would be so happy with what I created, so thank you for the experience and to Maeve who was great at mentoring us and uncovering our inner artists! I highly recommend booking this.

Louise Otter

I completed my 3rd event last night & I am hooked on this model & paintings as a whole. 
I have now completed the dragonfly, bumblebee & the flamingo. I have attended on my own to my 1st & 3rd event & have been made to feel welcome. I forgot I was there alone I had so much fun. I haven't done art since school & definitely not at GCSE level. So I thought I would be rubbish. I can see my talent getting better with each painting & what surprised me was my first one wasn't rubbish because they guided you throughout every stage of the process. I've even bought painting supplies & canvases to paint at home whenever I feel the urge. Thank you, so much for helping me unleash my inner child & become creative. I love it! See you soon at my next one! 😊🎨❤️

Nicole Cox

First time doing one of these and I was so impressed. The atmosphere, the direction of the instructor, the open forum and discussions between strangers on each others paintings. 100% would recommend. I was already looking at next events to sign up for! 

Zoe Colbeck

I really enjoyed learning how to paint a flamingo. Kirstie was fun, encouraging and made everyone feel comfortable to create their style of flamingo. I hadn't painted a picture since school and I really did chill out and forget my day to day stresses! Thank you.

Sadie Peckham

Whole experience was amazing! So much fun and such a chill vibe! The tutorial is so easy to follow and there is no judgement for any experience level. Would recommend to anyone and everyone looking for an easy evening with friends or colleagues ! Cannot recommend enough! 

Ellie Hayward

Went to my first sip and paint event to paint the flamingo. I am absolutely shocking at art and drawing and am so proud of what I managed to produce. The girl leading the session was brilliant, she went at the perfect pace and gave us super clear and very helpful instructions. She was so positive and upbeat and made it a wonderful evening for everyone. I will definitely be booking on to more of these events, the only issue I have is which one to choose next!

Diane Fairman

It was amazing!! With easy to follow instructions in a fun environment I really feel like I painted a masterpiece with no previous experience at all.  Will definitely be booking again soon 

Hazel Boyson

A great painting session, the step by step instructor made us feel really comfortable and I created a painting I love and I’m really proud of all whilst having fun (and a drink)! 

Lisa Skinner

Good fun.  Didn't believe they could help me do this, but they did!  Highly recommended

Hayley Thomson

Absolutely fantastic event, myself and my friend have attended before and have loved it. Teacher was brilliant, so calm and explained everything clearly. Will 100% book to come again! 

Get you flock of fabulous friends together to paint some stunning flamingos. No experience needed!

Paint Your Pet  

Ally McCormick-Farren

Had a really lovely experience, it was 2.5 hours rather than 2 but it was worth the over run. 

Sandra Phillips

Really enjoyed the class - teacher was most helpful.  I have no artistic talent whatsoever but with patient guidance was able to paint a fantastic picture of my beloved dog.  

Danielle Craven

I had such a great time at Paint and Chill! Kirsty was the BEST guide ever and so funny. I need to come back so I can paint my second rat Gertrude! 

Hayley McKeon

Absolutely loved the Pet your own pet. 
Going to book another morning session so my daughter can come and do it with me next time 

Jade McCloud

Great experience painting my dog yesterday. The training was very helpful and the hideaway is a perfect location :) 

Tracy McClure

Great fun for all the family - no prior ability required, as amply demonstrated by our group! Would recommend- also, the Hideaway on Highland Road was a great venue for it. 

Rebekka Cooper-smith

Really lovely experience  & great teacher:)

Charlotte  Wraith 

I loved this experience 😁 I would do it again 

Valentina Lipsham

Great experience for my nieces, they absolutely loved it. would highly recommend !

Abby Fletcher-Phillips

We have previously attended the sunflower painting workshop, where I was surprised that it actually turned out looking like a sunflower. But painting your pet sounded pretty difficult in comparison but we decided to give it a go. The step by step instructions were great, lots of tips and tricks and the end result was a paint, done by me that actually looked like my dog! I couldn’t believe it. I would like to take all the credit but it was really Kirsty with her patience, chilled was of teaching and amazing skills. Thank you!

Christina Farley

Lovely way to spend a few hours. All the things we needed were laid out for us. Step by step instructions,  everyone came away with a painting that resembled their pet. Rhian was a very knowledgeable and amusing instructor.  Can't wait to go again.  

Shirley Rush

I really enjoyed the morning, learning how use paints and what is possible to achieve as an absolute beginner. The time went quickly. I manage (with the children's  paints) to finish my cat  picture at home. I also had a jolly good laugh, at myself.  I would definitely recommend this class. 

Victoria  Harrison 

Brilliant morning, went with my sister. Both really enjoyed it, was something different but both said we'd love to do it again! Neither of us had picked up a paint brush in years, however with help we have both walked away with a lovely painting of our pets. Thank you, highly recommend. Hopefully see you again soon for another class. 

Create a beautiful portrait of your furry friend with the guidance of our talented instructor.
