On the search for fun things to do in Brisbane? Draw it, ink it and paint it with watercolours in this hands-on class.
Watercolour is a fantastic medium for painting, and with this beginner-friendly paint and sip class, you'll be surprised to discover how much fun and how rewarding watercolour painting can be!
You'll have a lot of fun because with good instruction watercolour painting is easier than it appears. Walk away feeling proud that you have drawn, painted and inked some lovely paintings. We will educate your 'artist's brain' to see and paint like an artist.
You will:
  • Practice the basics of watercolour painting
  • Practice some drawing techniques
  • Use your newly acquired skills to paint some simple objects
  • Practice inking to get a confident 'quality' in your ink lines
  • Add ink to your paintings
In this class, we aim to balance three objectives:
1. Have fun and paint some easy and nice paintings.
2. Introduce you to the full potential of ink and watercolour as a complex medium with the ability to make amazing artwork, and
3. To give you the benefit of our years of experience in relation to purchasing the appropriate brushes, papers and paints should you choose to go further with this medium.
While this class is squarely aimed at the beginner, small class sizes and a flexible format mean that experienced artists will also find this class fun and rewarding.
Gather your friends for a fun and rewarding few hours of painting and sipping, whether you're after unique birthday party ideas, hens party ideas or even casual team building activities.
At the end of the class, you'll take home some A5 watercolour paintings, as well as the skills and confidence to continue exploring this relaxing medium.

Stewart has been running fun and easy art classes for many years in Brisbane, whilst working as a full time artist. His studio, Montana Art Project', was a victim of COVID, it got a little unfashionable to sit in rooms with groups of strangers.
Stewart splits his days between organising and running paint and sip classes, painting murals commercially, painting artworks for sale online and in a gallery, online selling t-shirts and prints, or styling and running his Airbnb's.
"My very first sale through a gallery was a watercolour of two naked women, actually one was wearing a string of pearls from memory, dancing the tango. Then I sold ink and watercolour paintings of different dog breeds. Now I am more likely to be found in a pub painting a large mural, in my studio painting in acrylic to make into prints, or running paint and sip classes." Stewart Shuker.
I think I am the luckiest person in the world, helping people like you discover your creative side and skilling you up to do even more arty stuff.
It's a proven fact - creativity makes us happy!!
