My finished piece (With two lobsters in the corner)
Sallie K.

I went to a session with my brother and had a wonderful time! The instructors were easy to follow and helpful with questions along the way. I'm very much looking forward to going to another one!

This event was at the Hidden Chapter Bookstore in Ft. Thomas so much fun!!

This was such a fun event to attend! Chelz was an amazing instructor and made the night so much fun. I organized a group outing of 13 and had so much fun that I brought my grand daughter a few weeks later. I highly recommend this event!

Tonight was my 2nd time painting with The Paint Sesh. The first time was November 2019 and it was awesome!! I've been wanting to try one of their virtual sessions via Zoom. I tried the Beachside Night, it was also an amazing experience. Chelz takes it step by step so don't worry. She explains everything well. The music she plays is fire. They have great taste in music. The session was about 1 hr and 40 minutes. Only $15!! I can't wait to buy more. They also offer kid friendly paintings. I highly recommend. *they are also very quick to answer any question thru fb messenger Thank you The Paint Sesh !! Keep being awesome !

REALLY FUN! We were a bit late and had some cancellations, but with all that our instructor (Chris) was really nice and patient! He Made this experience be so much fun!! He even helped my 2 year old nephew with his masterpiece... Hahaa ! Thanks Chris for making our first time painting awesome!! We will definitely use you guys again for our moms bday!!

The venue and perfect set up.

Chelz and her team were incredible. The price was less than other places I searched too. It seems than Covid drove the cost up for many goods and services. I was planning a paint and sip for a milestone birthday of mine for a few years now. But thank goodness for The Paint Sesh- I was able to stay on budget and celebrate with my family and friends as planned. Chris was on time. He was very professional and patient. They took a few extra canvases for any last minute drop ins and Chris was able to accommodate for an add on in minutes. I truly appreciate it! The cleanup was quick. They provides everything they said they would. The music and his attention to my guests was great. I would most definitely recommend Chelz and her team to anyone looking for a memorable time. I have been to two paint sessions prior, 1 live and 1 virtual. The canvas for both were 16x20. Chelz had a smaller canvas- about 12x18 or so. To be honest, I really appreciate the smaller size. It makes it easier to display in my home! Nothing but good things to say.

I'm proud to say I've attending these classes monthly for the past year and they've completely changed my life. Chelz and Chris are an awesome team of seriously talented artists, they provide a professional yet fun and funky painting experience! Chelz takes you step by step through the painting process and is very thorough if you have any questions or "happy accidents" I leave each class feeling much more comfortable and confident in my painting abilities and have a great souvenir to take home and put on my wall! So satisfied with the techniques I've learned from these fun get togethers!! Venue is on point, vibes and people are always on point I have no complaints PS HUGE FAN OF THE VIRTUAL PAINTINGS I can learn step by step how to paint, in real time, at my home!! I LOVE IT!! It's like escaping my everyday life for 2 hours, in the comfort of my own home. Thank you for continuing to bring us joy during the quarantine!!!

Painting my "masterpiece" from home with supplies purchased from The Paint Sesh.

We worked with the Paint Sesh crew to host a Virtual Paint party for our remote team. They were easy to work with, and created a very easy to follow along environment. Our team had a lot of fun, and I got quite a few messages about how nice it was to just "turn off" for a bit at work. While I do wish there was an option for us to ship kits to various addresses in one order, I understand the challenges of those logistics for the owners. Definitely would hire them again!

We had a blast, both my teen daughter and I. Each at our own pace. I ended up making 2 small paintings on paper, and my daughter a one large one on canvas. We knew exactly what to gather to be ready for the live art class. Started on time, and went on longer because of some technical issues. Chelz and Chris are an awesome team! Clear instructions, great music, great vibes!

Chelz hosted a 22 kids party (ages 9-10) every participant was engaged and even though it was a 2 hour Zoom session most of the participants stayed throughout the entire event. Her patience and great music choices made the party a blast! We can't wait to host an adult wine and paint party next time. Thank you for a great birthday celebration for our daughter and her friends.

Private paint party for baby shower. "Enchanted Forest" was the painting.
Alexandria M.

I've done a few in person painting events and tons of virtual paint events with the paint sesh. This was my first time having a private paint party for my sister's baby shower and the only word I can think of to describe how it all went is AMAZING. Booking was so easy, and the communication is great. The day of the party, Chris arrived and set up everything so I didn't have to. My guests had so much fun. Many of them had never done a guided painting before, but Chris was so helpful, and they all loved every second of it. The music was awesome, the direction was easy, and look at these beautiful paintings! I 100% recommend the paint sesh.

Do they have wine and paint sessions. On these are they just for adults or not?

The event I attended was only for 21+. I don't know if they have family friendly events.

One of my absolute favorite things to do is a James Reynold's "Not Your Average Paint and Sip"…read moreclass. I've now done five classes and I'm so excited about his new space in Walnut Hills, which will provide options for all sorts of events. His creativity and imagination is endless and his students benefit as a result. Like the name says, this is not your average paint-n-sip. The drinks are flowing and it's a full bar with beer, wine, and liquor, as well as n/a options. You get guidance from a theme and inspiration photos and images, but you ultimately decide what you're going to paint. Some people choose to recreate an existing piece but many go wild, like I do. The Pendleton Art Center space was brilliant and eclectic and full of color and inspiration. I have high hopes that the Walnut Hills space will be the same and I'll be one of the first ones there. James is a delight. He's supportive and encouraging but absolutely no-nonsense. He will give guidance when requested, or gentle nudges when things go awry (or you're taking too long lol). He's an excellent teacher, an outstanding entertainer, and you feel like you're best friends by the end of the class. Do yourself a favor. Whether it's a date, girls' night out, or you can fill the whole space, book a class with @NYAPSC_OTR.

Great time! Informative session on Monet followed by painting in oils and great company…read more Libations and snacks provided.

This was their initial foray into the Dayton area, so there were lots of bonus door prizes and raffles. In the end, you took your piece of art home with you, ready to grace your walls with your creative prowess. Like magic or something! My *only* complaint was that, at times, the instructions weren't completely clear. But as we understood it, this was a training session for the new artists. Our pictures still came out beautifully. Also, heads-up - there was one guy in the room. I really wanted my husband to join me, but in hindsight I'm glad I took a girlfriend. That would have been very awkward for him. A solid 4-star time, and we'll definitely do it again!

It allows you to check out a place you might otherwise have never visited which makes it super easy to surprise someone. Guys, make the reservations online and take your lady out to dinner or for drinks and surprise her when the painting party starts! Our facilitator was Rachel and she was awesome. She dumbed it down enough that even I felt like I was doing okay! The fact that they visit different places to hold the parties is probably the reason why there are so few reviews here but the night I went if we had all reviewed there would be twenty more 5 star reviews on here. We all had a good time and it was fun meeting new people and going outside my comfort zone to do something new. Will definitely do this again!

The food on the original advertisement was listed as brunch, then back tracked and it was..piss poor snacks at best. Food was all over the floor, where people had dropped it trying to serve themselves. The food ran out and we had to go back to Port, for that food to run out. the paint portion was unguided, we received elementary school supplies. no easels or instructions. did the wine tasting even happen? I spoke with Edward and he assured me at that time that a refund would be made and I would be made whole. Then after the event, it went to him providing a partial refund. as of today I have yet to receive a refund and have sent him multiple emails, that have went unanswered. I will never waste my time (I drove from Columbus), not money with this company.

The instructor barely told us what we were supposed to do while painting. We were also supposed to received the instructions for the Music Hall within a week and have yet to receive it. I was not very happy with the experience.
