Great fun. The lady in charge was amazing. Great banter, great talent and a really supportive environment. Loved it. Will def do it again.
Mum • Attended Sep 2026
I gifted this for my mum and her friend. Both in there mid 70s. They thoroughly enjoyed themselves but did feedback that they could not hear the advice given regarding specific painting of the cows nose and other important painting bits. This meant they were confused with where to start the painting. They did say that the person leading the paint was excellent but could have been clearer with the explanation to both side of the busy and noisy room. They also said that the lighting was low and they could have used more light.They loved the night though and would return if the painting choices were fun and colourful like the cow. They would not be keen to paint a forest/landscape or sunset.

Had so much fun. Lyndsay makes it easy to produce a half way decent painting. Haven’t painted since primary school - so proud of my canvas. I’d highly recommend this as something a bit different to do. Really chilled out. Lots of laughs and jokes. Also great music playing in the background. Can’t think anything that would have made the night any better. Perfect
Gaynor Brocklebank • Attended Sep 2026
Brilliant night with fab teacher & easy to follow instructions! Will definitely be booking another one.
Jenni Murphy • Attended Aug 2026
We had a really fun evening painting tote bags. The lady running the session was lovely. We felt totally comfortable despite it being our first time. It was great to see everyone’s creations at the end all so different. Will definitely book another session soon.
Ruth Oake • Attended Aug 2026
2nd visit to paint & sip. Loved painting the tote bag which was very different to the canvas and plus side is you get a useful shopping/ beach bag out of it. Lyndsay was engaged and very entertaining. Thoroughly enjoyed it and have recommended to all my friends.
Elizabeth • Attended Aug 2026

A fun informative evening with like-minded friends. Who knew we could paint a lovely picture in 2 hours? Lucy was perfect in keeping everyone on track, helpful and gave us lots of praise and encouragement. I expect we’ll book again as we all enjoyed it so much.
Gaynor Evans • Attended Aug 2026
This was Gaynor's fifth time doing this class
Far better class as we managed to get a seat w to the front, Lots of the other participants were struggling to see though and had to repeatedly get up and go to the front of the room to see the demonstration more clearly, The tutor (Lucy) did her utmost to help with this by taking the canvas to the participants to show them what they needed to do. It is just the poor layout if the room and on no way the fault of the tutor. Still a thoroughly enjoyable class though.
Elizabeth Anderton • Attended Aug 2026
Fantastic evening with The Paint Republic once again, it was lovely to paint a make up bag which can be used daily. Chilled vibe and great atmosphere. We will return for future events.

A wonderful class. So fun and relaxing. Lindsay is a fantastic host and teacher, so encouraging and fun, makes you feel very comfortable and there is no need for any painting experience. She manages to make everyone comfortable and we all surprised ourselves with what we could create in a couple of hours and be very pleased with our paintings. The evening was just what we needed after stressful lives at home or in work. Highly recommended!
Emma Radoux • Attended Jun 2026
We had a great time painting rainbow highland cows at this class! I was so intimidated at first seeing the finished piece, but the instructor was sooo patient and helpful and we all came out feeling really pleased with the work. She was really great, engaging and funny - the two hours flew by!
