Your Art. Your Rules

We're not making museum showcases at Pinot's Palette! We're making art that's fun, art that's personal, and art that people are proud to keep in their homes ... or give away as a gift. Takes the pressure off, right?

We want you to have fun! Better yet, if you walk away loving your painting ... we're happy, too. Whether you are in the studio painting or you have joined a virtual painting event, our instructors will lead you through a painting, step-by-step. But maybe you want to switch it up a little? Maybe the colors aren't just right for your home. Or, maybe you go a little bit crazy and paint something unique and personal. For instance, if the painting features a volcanic mountain you may choose to add a dragon atop the volcano. Maybe the painting features a couple walking through the woods but you choose to make it a painting of you and your son walking through the woods. Our favorite "rogue" paintings have included some pretty imaginative changes. Part of what makes our studio fun is that it's completely individual, even when someone is working from the same example and same instructions. Because no two painters use the same technique or have the same stylistic flair, each finished work has its own personality. The next time you are looking at our studio's monthly calendar of events, look at the sample paintings as a starting point. If it has the colors or an element you're not crazy about, know that you will be encouraged to change it up and make it your own. Your art. Your rules.
