As an instructor, she is patient, personable, and helpful. She is non-judgmental and encourages individuality in guiding her lessons. She has a wonderful attitude and a positivity that is infectious. As someone who commissioned an artwork from her, I found the experience to be totally professional. Chelz assured she had an understanding of what I wanted, sent me options, and kept me updated as the work progressed. Her talent and attention to detail is apparent in everything she does. Her love of color makes her work pop! Her dedication to her craft is obvious and It's clear bringing joy to others through her art is very important to her.

She responded that she actually makes these services available. Therefore, we ended up working together on a personal painting that I ended up gifting to my significant other as part of my engagement proposal. The painting was a big hit! Chelz brought everything over that was needed (16'' x 20'' canvas, easels, paper towels, palettes, paint, floor covers, tables, etc). I appreciated Chelz's patience, encouragement, optimism and leeway while she helped teach me to paint my customized painting. At every step, she would encourage me to add my own creativity to the painting. I had a great time working with her

I was expecting an experience similar to the Purple Easel in Ontario where you an have instructor guide you on how to paint a disco ball and cocktails are provided. I left with what Cher from the film Clueless would describe as a "Monet" of a painting and feeling disappointed and scammed out of $50. DISCLAIMER: If you are not able bodied or if you have leg issues, back issues or buttocks issues, this event is not for you. This building is old and I didn't see an elevator. Also, you are sitting on the floor on a cheap throw pillow. I've seen cute charcuterie events at the beach and they provide better seats than this. The flyer does not mention any of these things. For the painting , we basically self taught ourselves how to paint these disco balls. I referred to the You Tube video provided by Art with Mrs. Hibbs called, "Learn how to paint a beautiful and sparkling disco ball." HOW I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE EVENT: I do not follow their social media, just went in blind because my sister and her friends were going and thought this would be a cute event on a Saturday afternoon. I did checkout their social media page after I attended and saw this is the setup for all the events, criss-cross apple sauce on the ground. THE EXPERIENCE: I climbed 2 flights of stairs and arrived to like a studio apartment from the 1920's and in my mind said, "OH HELL NO..." when I saw we were sitting on the ground for this. When I arrived there were thin wooden circles on the table and I asked how to do this and my sister started showing me kind of how to trace the lines on the wood. I asked her where the teacher was and she said she's making the drinks. Turns out everyone else was clueless as well because the party to the right of me were all questioning each other and looking around too. I found out later, that in the first 15 minutes I wasn't there, the girl put minimal effort into explaining how to paint and offered to air drop or text instructions to my sister and she just text her a photo of the finished product, not how to trace the lines or paint it. Thus, I looked up how to do this on YouTube , but then my phone died 15 minutes later. So we're all winging it and drawing lines every which way and all the while the two female hosts are making cocktails and chatting it up with each other like they're in the back of house at a busy restaurant, but they were literally feet away from us in a makeshift kitchen in a tiny studio apartment so we could hear them talking about nothing. Also, there were about 12 of us total and they prepped no drinks ahead of time and spent most of the time just making a batch of craft cocktails and not really mingling with the guests or guiding us on how to paint this disco ball. At some point they brought out popcorn as the appetizer? I mean, $50 and you're going to serve popcorn on a plate and that's the light snack? GIRL BYE! I could've just done this in my garage with sushi from Sam's Club, or charcuterie from Aldi and cool snacks from Trader Joe's. I don't even think they microwaved the popcorn on site?! What I learned from this experience is that this was about the sip and not the paint. I'm all about supporting small businesses and exploring different communities but this event lacked intention and thought and the vibe fell flat. It wasn't giving and also the hosts were too busy making cocktails, passing them out then sitting behind the makeshift counter and either talking to each other or being on their phones. One of the girls came out towards the end and asked how we were doing then proceeded to lie to us and say our paintings were beautiful. The interaction felt forced and insincere. I only liked one of the cocktails and I couldn't even tell you the name of it. It was the one without the pineapple foam. You're better off meeting your friends and new people at a bar in downtown. If you've been to any of the SlowJamz Vinyl & VIno events in downtown L.A., then you know what it's like to go somewhere and meet new people easily and vibe and a major part of that is having great hosts that encourage mingling and get the conversation going. No amount of alcohol, drugs or trendy decor can replace that.

Rachelle is one of the most talented artist/teachers I have worked with and I always have a great time under her tutelage!

Something memorable than the typical bouncing jumpers. There were many mobile canvas paint companies to choose from, but my initial contact with Strokes on Kanvas made my decision so easy to move forward with them. I received a prompt follow-up call to confirm their availability, followed by personal messages to solidify the details. This husband/wife duo are nothing less than professionals. They were great with the kids. They were attentive, patient, knew when to give them breaks, knew how to gather them back and re-focus, and just had the kid's (and adults) excited about their painting skills. I had to keep a few adults away from joining the kid's experience. Stephen and Diane, I am so happy we worked together and created a lasting memory for my family. Next up... an adult paint party!
