Looking for unique activities in London? Join artist and teacher, Katerina at this creative painting class at the inspiring Wimbledon Art Studios.
During this full-day paint and sip class in London, you'll learn to paint in the medium of your choice with a glass of wine in one hand and a paintbrush in the other.
Enjoy a lovely lunch and a glass of wine and create a beautiful piece of art to hang with pride or give as an unforgettable handmade gift to someone special. Your painting can be inspired by beautiful views of London, portraiture, life models or photographs.
Throughout this art class, you can expect to receive one-to-one instruction from your experienced teacher – so don't worry if this is your first time picking up a paintbrush! With Katerina’s expertise and relaxed approach, you'll feel at ease straight away and the creativity will flow as soon as you begin to paint.
You’ll enjoy some lunch midway through your painting class, refuelling your creative mind for an afternoon of arty fun as you work on completing your painting.
If you're looking for creative activities in London, this art experience is a wonderful place to begin. Take some time out to express yourself, learn new skills and sip and paint the day away!

Katerina is an award-winning international fine art (traditional) painter and a qualified art teacher who works from her studio which is located in the middle of charming Earlsfield inside Wimbledon Art Studios.
The creative atmosphere of Katerina's studio will help you to immerse yourself into the artistic atmosphere, far removed from the city bustle. Katerina’s classes are for anyone who would like to spend a fun and exciting afternoon or evening creating with like-minded souls. Her studio is just the space to get you motivated, and you will have access to all the materials you need to get started.
Katerina will talk you through the process of colour mixing, mark-making and texture, guiding you skilfully through the process until you have created your own masterpiece.
Whether you are a complete beginner, or you want to experiment with new techniques you will find Katerina easy and empathetic, and by the way, forget the competition – there isn’t any. The classes are kept small for a reason, you are there to paint, not to panic.

This was a great experience.
The instructor was so lovely, helpful and chatty and as a family of 5 we had an incredible time.
We would have given 5 stars but:
1. The instructor arrived 30 mins late due to tube strikes
2. There was only 2 glasses of wine each, although coffee was offered - but lunch was lovely.
3. More chairs were probably needed as there were only 2 between 5.
4. We could have done with a little bit more assistance.
All in all, a lovely weekend activity and fun for all types of people and we would definitely recommend but with some tiny improvements.

Thank you, Lauren, for your lovely review! I am delighted to hear that you and your family had a great experience. Some things I would like to comment on : We would have given 5 stars but:
1. The instructor arrived 30 mins late due to tube strikes - Although I did arrive late , I did get in touch an hour before the start of the lesson to let you know beforehand and the class was finished 30 min later to ensure you have received the correct amount of painting time . I am extremely lenient with time and no one felt rushed to leave .
2. There was only 2 glasses of wine each, although coffee was offered - but lunch was lovely. I would have been happy to provide extras if requested.
3. More chairs were probably needed as there were only 2 between 5. Thank you for letting me know, I will ensure more chairs are available.
4. We could have done with a little bit more assistance. I was always in the studio giving a detailed instruction, correcting and improving paintings as requested… I am not sure how much more I could have done without stopping the paintings being ‘ your ‘ creation. The paintings have to be ‘ yours ‘ ! Good or bad and the perfection will only come with practice.

Bought as a gift for my Girlfriends birthday, Katya was lovely and arranged a really special session. I am an absolute painting novice, and my girlfriend has done some painting before, and Katya was brilliant with both of us - I'd highly recommend this class. Thank you again for the birthday treats!

Booked the art & wine class for a Mother’s Day gift. We all really enjoyed ourselves & learnt a lot. Thanks Katerina!

Misleading description. There we 6 of us in a tiny old studio that was freezing. No refreshments were offered throughout the class. Lunch was a Tesco wrap and fruit plus the option of a glass of wine in a plastic tumbler. I learnt a couple of tips but it wasn't worth the money.

Katerina was very helpful and patient with us. She provided lots of advice and support to make the experience enjoyable. We were pleased to leave with a painting each.
The class was great and the teacher was extremely helpful, she gave me a lot of attention and all the right tips and recommendations but still making sure it was my work. Make sure you arrive to the class with a few inspirations/references for what you want to paint.

The class was okay. A couple of things we were not really pleased about.
1. No seats were available for the attendees. It's difficult when you have to stand for 4+ hours to paint, not very comfortable and the room was really small.
2. The class felt rushed. Although its advertised as 4hrs, Katja had said the time could be extended as I informed her it was for a bridal shower and we had agreed an hr extra but we felt rushed out of the studio by 5.30 even though the session didn't start until after 2pm because the room was not ready by the time everyone arrived.
3. The lunch provided could be better and better presented. Some hot food options would have been appreciated.
4. The easels provided were not adjustable which meant some of the taller people had no option but to bend or hold the board in hand while standing for 4hrs.
5. It would have been nice to have paper bags or something for each person to take the painting home.
Overall, we tried to make the most of the day but perhaps this class is not ideal if you are organising a group event. Katja was helpful in helping the ladies with their sketches but she needs to put a bit more thought into the organisation of the class particularly when it's an event. People are paying for an experience.

The host was very hospitable, knowledgeable about her subject and put us at ease even though none of our small group could paint. We liked the fact that the host assisted us with our painting from start to finish which ensured we had a memorable painting to take home. The whole event was enjoyable and would definitely recommend it to others. Thank you.

I did not learn anything and not well organised. The teacher was on the phone. I should of just took paints to the park myself. Waste of money
