One of us did get a splinter because of the woodworking, but they had tweezers and basic medical supplies. They had a birthday party there for kids, and they were very into the projects. They seem to have options that are engaging for all ages. They also have a punch card for a free visit once you've been here five times! We will definitely be back.

Hands down she is better than my college art teachers. She's kind patient and willing to work with everyone at their skill level. I've been taking beginning drawing and water color. It's been a hot minute since I did drawing and I've never water colored before. In fact I only did black and white art until March when I started Water color. I share in Sasha's passion to create. I'm loving all I'm learning and sasha has created a little community in her studio with all of her students. It just feels so right to be there. We even get to be with the virtual learners during class. I encourage you to enter your child in anything sasha has. I also encourage the drawing class. Thins is an important class to go along with painting. It will actually enhance you paintings because we talk about light and shading. You are welcome to ask me anything. micjake@comcast.net. I guess the biggest take away is the cost. Sasha give a great price for all that she's teaching. Come explore with me or watch your child light up when they start using their creative side! It's magic! Enjoy your night. I hope to see you around at virtual or in person classes! If there is something you are interested in, sasha will find a teacher if she doesn't have the knowledge and she will provide the class for you!

For years I have been looking for "my thing" in terms of a hobby or passion, and leave most classes I have taken feeling low...not this one. Carey's infectious positive energy and eagerness to teach is incomparable to any other class I've taken. She takes the time to work with everyone and make sure they feel proud of the project they are taking home. I've done three projects at Glass Action and intend on doing more in the near future. Her unique approach to teaching a somewhat mystical, mysterious medium resonates with everyone she meets. A few weeks ago I left work in a kind of awful mood, and left feeling completely different. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would.

Review is for a private party at a home - cannot comment on the store front…read more My sister-in-law had a portion of her bachelorette party at home and Painting Sensations did an at-home painting party. The bride picked the painting for the group which was a sunset with a palm tree. Larisa was very sweet and came early to my in-laws home to set everything up an hour or so before the party started. Larisa had an easy breezy attitude which I think helps with the pressure of others wanting to do a good job with their painting. She did a great job explaining how to paint our painting and was non-judgmental of everyone's work. She was also funny and personable - you can tell she is passionate about her business! The price was $35/person and the painting lasted 2 hours total. We all gave her cash. All the supplies were provided and all the ladies had a great time. Once our paintings were dry, Larisa took a picture of us and our creations.

I saw this place pop up in Berkley a few years ago and was intrigued. I don't consider myself an…read moreartist by any stretch of the imagination. I hadn't attempted anything creative since the last art class I had in grade school. But I was interested when I saw they offered a Zentangle class which promised the only artistic ability you needed was to draw a stick figure. I took the class and ended up really enjoying it. It is essentially structured, meditative doodling. I came back for several more Zentangle classes when I found it was a great way to relieve stress and get out of the rut of logical, left-brain thinking. I never intended to create great art, but rather to get in touch with the creative part of my brain and to enjoy the meditative qualities of creating art. But I enjoyed Zentangle so much that I eventually branched out and tried several other classes that included things like intuitive painting, sculpture, and traditional Japanese Sumi-e black ink painting. Each class was fun and informative, and I was surprised to find sometimes I actually liked some of the art I created, too, and not just the process. The owner, Debby, and the instructors have all been great. They clearly love helping people learn and get in touch with their creativity. Articipate offers a wide variety of events, classes and lessons. It seems like there is something for everyone - regardless of age and whether you consider yourself artistic or not. It seems like a glut of places have popped up in the past few years offering private "paint parties". I have been to a couple of those and while they can be fun, this place takes an approach that is much more fun and engaging than a one size fits all "paint by numbers" approach - regardless of artistic ability. I encouraged anyone interested to check out what they offer and let the friendly owner and instructors help you get in touch with your creative side.
