I'm always trying to find ways to tap into my creativity and voilà, Clay 'N Latte. It's been up and running at this location since 2004 making its artful imprint on the community. When I entered the studio, the staff were very friendly and helpful creating a welcoming environment for art expression. One of the them checked me in. Another one walked me through what was on the table and where to find things. I appreciated their genuine assistance throughout my artwork. I can tell it's a popular place with the amount of people already there doing something creative for Easter weekend. All in all, I had a positive experience. I just looove my Easter egg!! I'll definitely go back for the adult events and strongly recommend this family-owned business to the Yelp Community :-) FYI - They don't have lattes.

Big shoutout to Amanda, she went above and beyond to help out girls bring out their creativity.read more

I found Rita on the Bob Ross website for instructors. Her studio is well-designed. My boyfriend…read moreand I sat on either side of Rita while doing our painting. She had our palettes and brushes set out, wipes for cleaning, and aprons to protect our clothes. We had a lot of fun and learned a lot as we are completely novice painters! She showed us how to use the knife and brushes to achieve different painting techniques by demonstrating and then helping out when, surprise, we were not perfect the first time! We were pleased with our results as well (shocker!). She was very patient and instructive. This was a fabulous introduction to painting, and we recommend Rita highly.

Rita and mark never flinched putting up with us!! I didn't know, but apparently I had picked the toughest painting for beginners, but with her instructions we had no idea. We had such a great time a few weeks later we went for one of her venues. So much fun... great food, drinks and cool people to meet. I'll definitely be taking more classes since now I think/believe I'm a closeted artist!!

The detail is impeccable and Queen Elizabeth's beauty in her face, crown and rod of equity are brought to life. The service from Cynthia and W.B. was amazing! They always kept in contact with me with courtesy emails on the process of the painting until it was completed. It was a pleasure working with them and couldn't be happier with this masterpiece! I will also add that their prices and work are worth every penny. I would highly recommend this artist and veteran owned business to anyone interested in portraits painted with oil paint. The passion W.B. puts in his work is evident through this portrait and his other paintings. Support this amazing couple and their business.

When I walked into the space, the man working greeted me quickly and said I could fill out a small paper choosing my favorite piece, and they do a 'best in show' every month, based on the votes. That painting will be featured and the artist gets a ribbon too. It made the experience interactive, which I really enjoyed. Can't wait to see who wins!
