In this relaxed, beginner-friendly session, you’ll transform natural sea shells into decorative art using acrylics and collage, layered color and materials. Enjoy syrah wines while transforming each shell into a small and beautiful piece of art.
No painting or drawing experience is needed. This isn’t about perfect technique — it’s about experimenting, enjoying the process, and leaving with something you’ll genuinely want to display at home.
By the end of the evening you’ll have a one-of-a-kind piece of art and, more importantly, the confidence that creativity is something you can return to anytime.
All materials are included, so you can simply arrive, settle in, and create.
What You’ll Experience
• A relaxed, welcoming studio environment, limited to just 12 artists so everyone receives individual attention.
• Gentle guidance throughout (never a lecture-style class)
• Techniques for painting, layering color, collaging
• Protective wrapping to safely take your artwork home
What's Included
Acrylic paints, brushes, stencils, and decorative finishes
