What you'll do
Looking for fun things to do in Edinburgh? This paint and sip workshop offers a fun, relaxed and creative night out in Edinburgh's fabulous city centre, and is perfect for those who want to reengage with their creative side, or enjoy a bit of escapism.With hands-on help from local painter Suzanne Kemplay, you will learn how to create your very own still life, portrait or landscape painting using acrylic paints, while enjoying a glass of wine served with cheese and crackers plus our usual selection of locally-blended Shibui teas, and coffee options.You don't have to be able to draw, so it's perfect for beginners as well as those who are new to using acrylic paints. And we think you'll be amazed at what you can achieve in one evening!Suzanne offers a range of themes throughout the year, and you will be given a choice of 2 options to paint on the night. She'll also provide a brief background to the artist's work, and support throughout the evening to help you make the most of your time.No previous experience is needed. Images can be traced so the focus is on the painting and you can get straight to work, and have fun playing with paint. Suzanne will talk you through the process showing you how to mix colours, and how to apply acrylic paint to get the best results. Please note:

- 5/5 from Carol Skedd, attended Nov 2024: I booked my friend and I onto the wine and acrylic painting workshop for her birthday.. We thoroughly enjoyed this and both came away with a Monet copy that can be proudly displayed in our respective homes! The tutor was very encouraging and spent time focusing on the skill of mixing colours. The wine flowed all night and the cheese & biscuits were delicious. The whole experience was well worth the money, my friend loved it!
