Open the door to your watercolour journey with this beginner-friendly workshop. Watercolour is a perfect way to start your painting journey and an ideal medium to relax and wind down.
In this 2-hour long session, you'll learn the basics of watercolour painting and layering, practising colour mixing and letting your hand have fun with the paintbrushes.
We'll study flowers and plants from drawings and pictures, so you'll have much to choose from! Mina, the host, will be guiding you throughout your design of choice and will share her knowledge of the technique with you.
You'll be able to choose the size of the painting you want to do, as well as having a choice of the image you want to recreate. The event is for 6 people max, so it will be an intimate and cosy get-together! Come with friends or solo to enjoy 2 hours of relaxing creativity!
  • The studio is a small and intimate space, intentionally curated to create a welcoming and absolute judgement-free atmosphere. This place is ideal for folks who enjoy arts and crafts but prefer a calm and quiet atmosphere. We focus on the process more than the final result, working towards, together, the enjoyment of MAKING.
  • Booking early is highly advised, the studio has a capacity of 6 people max.
Closer to the date of your workshop, you will get an email with instructions on how to get here, as it can be a bit tricky to find and you can’t see us from the outside. Check your spam folder!
See you soon!

  • 5/5 from Peter Cole, attended Aug 2026: Very enjoyable class, learned so much on how to paint with Mina!
  • 5/5 from Emma Sobczak, attended Jun 2026: I had such a lovely time and couldn't recommend the class more! The vibes were great and so nice to have a small class size. I will definitely be rebooking!
  • 5/5 from Susan Clark, attended Mar 2026: We had great fun and it was an enjoyable learning experience
  • 5/5 from Max Neil, attended Feb 2026: We had a lovely private class with Mina that we thoroughly enjoyed. The studio was lovely too. Mina immediately made us feel comfortable and was patient and knowledgeable and we came out with two paintings we were really happy with:) We highly recommend this experience.
  • 5/5 from Liam L Goldring, attended Feb 2026: This class was exactly what I was looking for, I was visiting London for 6 days and wanted a few hours to unwind and relax and try something new. I've never done any watercolour painting before, and Mina was an excellent teacher. She answered all my questions, was very informative and helpful, and guided me through the process step by step. I'm really happy with how my painting turned out, considering I'd never done it before, and this was a really good starting point and I learnt so much about the process. The studio is really easy to get to on the tube, and if I'm ever down in London again I'll absolutely be attending another class with Mina. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
  • 5/5 from Winnie Pun, attended Jul 2025: Mina. the teacher is brillant. She knows the subject and very patient with us. She always comes up with good idea of how we can improve the painting.

  • 5/5 from Sofia Marrakchi, attended May 2025: I had an amazing time with Mina. The class was very cozy and she’s been super helpful throughout the whole session, showing tips and tricks and helping you when needed.Thank you for all the advice and help when didn’t like the colours I ended up picking and I’m super happy with the end result. She’s also kindly let me stay over time to finish my art - I honestly had such a great start to the weekend thanks to her & the class and I’m super excited to come back. This is the first time in a long time I’ve been able to be in the present moment and not think of anything but the fun I was having. A real pleasure! thank you Mina!
