My first Sip-n-Paint experience was intoxicatingly fun. Ok, excuse the pun .. haha! Seriously, it…read morewas a lot of fun and to think I was feeling anxious especially after my grand entrance as I tripped in through the doors a little late to boot. Of course, the artist attendant was super accommodating, thankfully, my area was already setup. The artist attendant helped me into my apron and I received one drinking ticket which of course, a Mimosa is perfect on a Saturday afternoon. The artist attendant help me catch up, you select your paint colors and dab them on a plate used as your palette. Our art teacher took her time and both made sure to walk the room to provide extra help or tips. It's really cool you can "bump up" or customize your piece of wood art too. They're so helpful and friendly which helps cut the edge for anyone that may feel overwhelmed. Halfway through we get an artist break to replenish our liquids, snack or just to mingle around with your group or meet new people. I was surprised how nice and supportive people you never met before are, perhaps, it's the atmosphere. While you paint, they play some cool tunes and with drink in hand.. well, it's hard not to loosen up and your creative side seeps out onto the wood or canvas. In my case, we selected the class painting "Welcome Home" wreath on wood. It was great to see how each art turned out. For me, I changed "Welcome Home" to "Happy Campers" with a small drawing of our truck & trailer. This is more fitting since the Hubs and I are Happy Campers after all :) The art attendant & teacher were super encouraging and I received many compliments from my fellow class members. In the class, I met many other people either part of a group of friends, mom & daughter, grandma and grandchild, or just individuals by themselves... well, it was a pretty fun class and Budget friendly too. This art studio offered a "BOGO" special and my cost was $22~ (I was 1 of 6). At the end of our 2hr~ class, we took fun-silly pictures and of course, the class picture. The art attendant was nice enough to take a picture of our group however, they do a great job capturing photos of you while working as well and later check out their Facebook page to see your class photos! Definitely a 5 star first time experience for me.

Very walkable area. Across the street from Datz. The best place to park is in the back of their building and walk around. Parking is limited on the street in this area. I wanted to paint something for my boyfriend for the holidays and Gia was nice enough to agree to my pick, so we painted a black light, northern lights scene. I think both of ours turned out pretty good, albeit better under the black light! LOL Gia's looked better than mine. We went on a Friday night and had some very exuberant groups of young people with us. They were so much fun. Our instructor Nicole held a couple of contests and 4 people got to take home paintings from the gallery. I didn't win and I was insanely jealous! Ha!! The paintings Nicole and the other instructors create are fabulous! They are available to purchase and extremely reasonable prices. What fun gifts! Hmmm.. can I say I painted it?! Lol... I wouldn't do that. Anyone who knows me wouldn't believe me anyway. Nicole gave us step-by-step instructions and came around and helped us out when we made a couple of small mistakes. It moves pretty fast and I struggled a bit to keep up. I think the more you do it, the faster and more comfortable you will get with painting. The 2.5 hours went by so fast! I hope to go back to paint a canvas that includes lights and a do a paint your pet class. Go paint, drink, and be merry at Painting With A Twist!

They provide the paint, canvas and a good time. The instructors are always friendly and very talented. You can now make your own candle or linen spray too with a ton of scents to choose from. Check out the option to paint on wood planks as well- way more challenging but fun.

BUYER BEWARE. Unprofessional, Unresponsive, and No Accountability. This business takes payment but…read moredoes not stand behind its service when an issue arises. Booked and paid for a paint session for 3 at Painting with a Twist (Sheldon Rd). I called multiple times over 2 hours before the class--no answer, no live support. I did not ask for a refund, only to reschedule for a later date. They refused any resolution, blamed "lost paint," and "no proof of phone calls" despite several pictures of phone logs provided, and wouldn't even offer a partial refund. Despite the fact that their failure to answer calls made well in advance caused the situation, they refused to offer any alternative, resolution, or even a partial refund. Customers should not be penalized for a company's lack of communication or basic customer service. I've taken many paint classes like this before and have never experienced anything close to this level of poor service. This business takes payment but does not stand behind its service when an issue arises. Extremely disappointing. Avoid.
