Judging me by how much money she thought I had. I simply went in to ask a few simple questions about the studio and art. After this interaction with her I'm completely disappointed. Obviously she doesn't have people skills. Above all else let along implying I was too poor to afford to sign up for any classes. Shmm she couldn't be more wrong.

The instructor actually told us she had never painted that before, and she completely botched it. Not to mention, had her friend in the class as well (which is normally not an issue) but was totally distracted which in turn was messing everyone else up. A few people around us expressed their frustrations as well, to which she laughed off or would continually repeat "I hear everything in this room". Keeping in mind that this is a black light painting, we almost didnt even get to see what it looked like under the blacklight until my mother asked the instructor if we could a short while after the sessions was over and almost half the class had already left. Would not come back here even if I was paid to, teach your instructors to do their job better. Would give 0 stars if I could.

We decided to go on an adventure and take a painting class together. He, an engineer, didn't think himself a painter or an artist at all. I consider myself more of the artsy-fartsy type and was completely ecstatic about going to this class! I walked into this little hole-in-the-wall in Renton and was greeted very kindly by the owner, Bev, and a guest artist. Some booze and snacks were had and then we entered the art room. Not officially called "the art room," but I thought it was a clever description. The painting process was explained and easy to understand. Every painting seemed very unique and easy enough to learn. Even though my bf wasn't an artist, his painting turned out wonderful! We had a great time. I recommend going after work with the girls or for a birthday party. I brought home a complete work of art and it was a really good time. Some suggestions: eat dinner ahead of time, come early to find parking, and you might not want to be a perfectionist because the two hours we had went by really quick. I'd like to go to a longer session. All the paintings look so RAD!

I am not sure why Google says that they are closed on Mondays, because that is not true. I recommend that you call before you head over so you can confirm 2 things: 1. that they are actually open, and 2. that the event listed on their website is happening. Thankfully, Google was correct about the phone number, so I was able to contact the right person and confirm everything before coming in. When I walked in, I really liked the atmosphere. There were paintings hung all around the space from different artists and locations, which made it feel very homey and community-focused. You can tell that it is a local spot that highlights the people who live in the area, and I loved that. Even the bathroom was pretty clean! They have sinks in the painting area, which is super convenient if you get paint on your hands, like I did The pop-in area had about 6 easels, and for the session you can paint on an 11x14 canvas (I think that was the size) for a $20 fee -- $22 after tax. They get the area set up for you, and they offer aprons. I am not sure if the aprons are washed because they did have paint all over them, but that is expected in an art studio... The canvas that they provided was clean and new, too, though the easels had layers of paint from previous sessions, which is also expected. The staff even gets the paint for you before you start your project, which is nice! I also really appreciated that they had binders full of painting ideas you could choose from, or you could just create your own if you preferred. On top of that, they had stencils available, which was super helpful. I did the "Happy Little Washington" painting, and it required a stencil of the Washington state outline. The staff got one ready for me! They were kind enough to trace it and cut it out for me, so I thank them for doing that -- it made the process so much easier. I gave this place a slightly lower rating because I felt like the tour could have been much better. I did not realize at first that I could get my own paint, so I kept asking the worker for help when I did not need to. A proper walkthrough of the studio, the supplies, and even the artwork (which is a highlight of the space) would have made the experience clearer and smoother. It all felt a bit glossed over, even though those details are part of what make this studio stand out. For parking, you can use the retail parking area. According to the worker, they do not rely check there...Just remember that when you arrive, you do not enter through the nearest door -- you have to walk around to the street-facing entrance to get inside. The staff was welcoming and helpful; I just think a more thorough tour would have prevented me from having to interrupt them while they were cleaning the studio. Snacks were available, such as candy and chocolate bars, at $2 each, and they had loud music playing on the overhead speakers, which I loved! Super duper good music taste. I thought that my apple carplay somehow hooked up to their bluetooth lolol
