About the event
Structure:
Unlike other painting workshops, we encourage everyone to paint whatever inspires them â no limits here! Our on-site artist will be with you throughout the process, ensuring you feel confident and comfortable as you create. Before the event, we'll send you a link to our inspiration boards filled with ideas to spark your creativity. You can send us up to 2 images you'd like to paint on the day, and we'll have them printed and ready by your canvas.
What's Included:
Indulge in 60 minutes of refillable wine as you sketch, paint and bring your unique #easelescape masterpiece to life. You'll receive an apron and a brief introduction on what to expect, how to use the acrylic paints, and answers to any questions you may have. We'll be painting on square 400 x 400mm canvases.
Atmosphere:
From the moment you step into the Selina Secret Garden, you'll be immersed in the #easelescapeexperience. You'll be surrounded by like-minded people and get the opportunity to chat, chill and bond with new people over a splash of paint & glass (or two) of wine.
