The artist Louis did a fantastic job keeping us entertained engaged. For a room of four, he instructed like it was full house-engaging us in games during drying phases. Still offer prizes and trivia which is appreciated since i brought my niece for 21st birthday. Most studios die down the theatrics and pass over the advertised theme when there's a small group. Louis did not and he didn't get flustered when we veered from the preferred taught technique, but instead had a wealth of knowledge the help is make the painting our own.

Recently went to Painting with a Twist for my friend’s bachelorette party and we all had an amazing time. John-Paul was our instructor and guide and he was wonderful and patient with us. He explained everything very nicely and was super kind and funny throughout the whole time we were there. I would definitely be returning again for future events. Highly recommend this place even if you are a beginner painter like me, you will enjoy it so much!

I’ve been wanting to attend a paint your pet session and let’s just say it was worth the wait. I dragged my hubby this time. Anyways we will be back. I loved John Paul and Louis! They drew the stetches from our photos, helped us and guided us in our painting. Considering it’s our first time-I wanna say these came out really good. My girl Lucy (RIP) and our boy Ganni’s painting are gonna be lining our walls.

We recently went to Paint with a Twist for our interiors team outing, and it was an absolute hit! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was fun, creative, and welcoming. The instructors were amazing—super patient, encouraging, and always ready to jump in with helpful tips (and a few laughs). Even those of us who hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in years felt comfortable and inspired. We had such a blast painting, chatting, and letting our creativity flow. It was the perfect mix of relaxation and team bonding, and we left with not only our own unique artwork but also some great memories. Highly recommend it for any group looking for a creative, fun-filled experience!
