Paint n Sip Bar Event “Lemons”

Jo Mellish-Smith

What an enjoyable evening. We have done a couple of designs with Rhian before (dragonfly and Pola Bear Cubs) and find her evenings very relaxing and easy to follow with the step by step guidance. I thoroughly recommend giving it a go. At the start you think to yourself - "mine will never look like that" and boom, just like that, with a slight variation, you've produced a painting to be proud of!  I love the fact that more locations have become available now too Thank you so much, can't wait until the next one that we have already booked!

Love doing these evenings. I’m very self critical of the work I do but love that I’m so involved that the time just speeds by and you actually achieve so much. 

Fran JENKINS

Thank you Rhian for another brill evening  of  'trusting the process', really enjoyed it and have a fun picture to add to the gallery :-D x x

Claire Harries

Having done lots of other paintings we felt that this one was very fast paced, the instructor this time didn't allow us time to catch up or finish the previous section or check we were ready to move on.  Also with the heat the paint dried up on our plates very quickly so some sections were hard to do and could have done with a fresh plate in-between breaks.  Still had fun and laughed a lot would do another one.

The perfect way to bring the stereotype of the seaside, into your home. With a sprinkle of fun!

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. 

Stephen Hankin

Bryony White

This was a lovely morning activity. I got this for my mum for Mother’s Day and she loved it. 

Ann parker

I booked this event for myself and three friends.  We all have very little painting skill.  Through the step by step process and with the guidance of our teacher Kirsty.  We all produced a painting that was recognisable as our pets.  A very enjoyable and fun experience.

michelle saunders

We had a table of 4. We had a lovely afternoon. Lovely friendly atmosphere.  We were very pleased with our paintings.  Great instructions and advice given. 

Jade Bright

Amazing experience! This was my second class, but this time I painted my own pet. Cannot say how happy I am with the result! Such a friendly and fun session! 

Charlotte Edmonds

Claire Crook

FABULOUS TEACHER! This was my first time using acrylics and I LOVED IT! I’m so thrilled with the end result - not my pet as I don’t have one but my leopard I met in Kruger South Africa in the summer. The venue could have been a tad quieter and more relaxing but I appreciate venues are hard to come by. More daytime workshops would be wonderful as I come over from Gosport so evening ones are not ideal. 

Sarah Taylor

We did the ‘paint your pet’ class yesterday in Southsea and had the best time. The class was relaxed and fun and our teacher was so helpful and friendly. I’d highly recommend a painting class with Paint Chill Co. Thank you for a lovely afternoon ❤️

Angus Morrison

Fantastic experience with our tutor Kirsty in Southsea and 5 other people.

Loved it and could not believe I managed to draw my dog.

Thanks all.

Highly recommended.

Susan DaCosta-Greene

It was just what me and my friend needed, thank you, Kirsty was an excellent teacher :-)

Claire Samways

We had 5 of us booked on and had such a lovely time realised we can create art with the right guidance! Our host was friendly and funny keeping us entertained and educating us on how to create our master pieces!

Jane Hume

We had a brilliant evening.  The tutor was very good and gave us clear instructions on how to create our master pieces... we would definitely go again, we all enjoyed it , thankyou.  

Jo Webb

Great, fun evening. Would thoroughly recommend. 

Tina Hopes

Went as a group of 4 for a friends birthday.  Great evening and came away with a lovely painting to keep. Would recommend.  

Joanna Armitage

I love these classes so much. It honestly doesn’t matter what your ability is; beginner or advanced, you can really enjoy yourself in the company of other likeminded people. 

Louise Hodson

This was such a fun and relaxed evening. 
The instruction was excellent and there was so much support in the room. We had a wonderful time. 

Beth Cowen

Great enthusiastic teacher, a really fun event with friends!

Katy King

A fun event, passionate energetic teacher. We enjoyed the evening even though it was very busy and some us struggled to hear and see the demo. 

Aimee Stratford

We had a fabulous time painting with Kirsty, it's such lovely bonding  time with a loved one and to have a lovely painting after, makes you feel all bubbly and happy! See you in March!

Cherrie Clarke

Absolutely loved it! Me and my partner, brother, mum and mother in law loved every minute. We were a bit worried about being somewhere public (outside in) where other people could watch us but that quickly changed as we were all so invested and enraptured by the fun of it all we didn't think twice about other people. Kirstie was a fantastic host. Funny, charming, helpful and not too fast paced, just great all round. We all created something we were super proud of in the end and to our surprise and had loads of fun throughout the whole process! Thanks to Kirstie. We will definitely be attending another session! 

Alison Dudley

Fabulous afternoon with friends.  
Fun and therapeutic.  A  great experience for  the heart and soul. 

I would thoroughly recommend and I would go back. 

Great teacher and we were all pleased with our creations.  Everyone did well, even without previous experience. 

Good to have a bar and several food options in this charming venue . 

Sarah boxall

Fantastic, fun class, great teacher  we enjoyed it so much
 Looking forward to next one 

Fran Jenkins

Lovely evening as always, Rhianne led us through with our Daddy and Baby brushes, and I'm really pleased with my result, never quite as good as the original - but mine and just doing it is fun, relaxing and therapeutic, Thank you !

Claire Birks

Awesome evening learning how to paint - such a unique concept and a really fun, relaxed environment. Will be returning!

Elizabeth Edmends

We had a really lovely time at this Paint n Sip event. It was such fun to create this piece together and see the differences in our finished products. 

Charlotte  Robertson 

Really good night. Kistie was great. The atmosphere was friendly.  Had a really great time. Thankyou

Trudy Slade

Absolutely fabulous evening painting with paint and chill. I bought this as a birthday surprise for my friend. And we both were delighted at the experience. We made a great picture with the help of the wonderful Rihann. She was a great guide and even though we haven’t painted before. We were happy with are pictures. Fantastic evening. I’d recommend it. 

Debbie Mead

Debs Tugwell 

Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. I’ve found a new hobby that’s for sure!

Trudy Powell

This was the first time i had been to anything like this and thought it looked the perfect birthday get together for my friend. And it was. 
The teacher (apologies i have the worst memory) was fabulous, funny and clear in what we had to do. My dragon fly actually looked like a dragon fly! Cannot wait to book again. Thank you

Helen  Kimber 

I bought it as a birthday gift for my sister.  It was our first time and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was fun and was made to feel very comfortable going into the unknown,  and, if I may say so myself,  was pretty pleased with the results.  
Thank you so much. Will definitely do it again.  xx

Ali Prismall

A great activity to celebrate our anniversary. Loved it. Thank you

I took a friend who was concerned about not being able to draw to which at the end of the evening was wanting to do another one as she enjoyed it that much.

Thank you so much again Paint and Chill

Sarah  Rolls-Hooper

A really enjoyable evening, a great host who really spent time making sure everyone was happy and helping when it was needed. Great venue also. Just booked my next one and can’t wait!

Louise Marie Otter

I have wanted to learn to paint for years but I was nervous to go to a class. I decided to go to my first class, with the Paint Chill Company. 
I went alone & didn't know what to expect. The teacher made me feel welcome. The set up, process, guided instruction & encouragement was amazing. I really really enjoyed my experience. I am so surprised at what I managed to produce. I absolutely love it! 
I loved the evening & experience so much I've decided I am going to attend another class each month as part of a relaxing & creative activity for positive mental health. Plus I get to create beautiful artwork that will improve with experience to brighten our hallway & stairs. 
Thank you very much. 

Poppy Stokes

A great evening!!! I booked this for me and my mum as it’s something different to do. I couldn’t recommend more, Rhian is super friendly and a great host, and who knew that I could paint that well! (Thanks to Rhians tutorial) it was a lovely experience spending time with my mum and we got to take home a memory, thank you so much ❤️

Joanne Rodaway

I have chosen these painting sessions as birthday present s for friends. So far, I’ve done 3 different sessions. My friends all said they can’t paint. But made lovely paintings and enjoyed themselves. I will be back x

Georgia Khnanisho

Great night! I have no artistic abilities at all but I was actually really impressed with my painting. It was very easy to follow the guidance given.

Debs Smart

A fun evening being creative. Am pleased with my painting - my only criticism of the evening is that the light in the room was dreadful. Very poor so much so I couldn't really see what colours I was using or how it looked on my canvas. A shame because it made a difference to my enjoyment!

Andie Harborne

Fabulous evening, can't recommend it enough and a lovely picture to take home too, what's not to love 🙂

Bianca Brathwaite

HILARY SMITH

Welcoming, chilled evening; friendly instructor; paced approach; looking to book again 😀

Sam Butcher

This was such a good fun and enjoyable will definitely do another one.

Karin Garrad

My friends and I enjoyed the experience, however we felt that the venue was a bit noisy and we found the subject quite difficult 

Tamsin Dickinson

Really fun evening, very well organised but with plenty of opportunity for creativity too!. Thank you!

Janneke Klos

I didn't really know what to expect, but I absolutely loved the session. The tutor walked us through how to paint a dragonfly - she broke each section into easy steps, and she demonstrated the steps by painting along with us.  I loved seeing everyone's paintings at the end of the night!

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!

Georgina Reilly

A group of us did the event for a colleague’s leaving do and we weren’t disappointed! We all had a great time, the instructor was friendly and helpful, the resources were plentiful and it was held at a great location. We were all really impressed at our efforts and look forward to similar events in the future. Thank you! 

Deb Parrish

Excellent course - would recommend.
You get a painting to go home with and something to show for your evening.  Plenty of the others were happy to slap it on and rush - I wanted to take my time and do it properly for a good result - for this reason I found it hard to keep up.  That's not a criticism of the course or the instructor - its more about me and what I wanted to get out of it.

So look forward to these evenings. Very relaxing and lots of fun. Easy instructions with a very encouraging instructor, and the end result…? Well, all the paintings are slightly different, but haven’t yet found anyone who isn’t pleased with the end product. 
Definitely an evening which can be tailored to each persons ability and great to try new skills.

Sue Thompson

a good night out and fun to learn something that can turn out so good

Helen  Richardson 

Great evening - loads of fun.  And to my great relief, a lovely picture at the end.  Thank you
